" Abhay Deol has said he is looking forward to his new film with real-life girlfriend Preeti Desai.  The star has turned producer for the  rom-com in which he also stars with Desai.   Speaking to Mid Day, Deol said: &amp;quot;It is my director Devika Bhagat&amp;#039;s debut project too. I am happy and thankful that I have got a good team to work with. &amp;quot;We have finished all preparation, though I didn&amp;#039;t have to do much. Preeti really had to work hard as she is playing a dancer in it. There is one peppy number in it on the lines of &amp;#039;Emotional Attyachar&amp;#039; ( Dev D). I am sure it will become the next youth anthem.&amp;quot; The actor added that he was not originally intended for the lead role.  &amp;quot;When Devika narrated the script to me, I really liked it and we were looking for an actor opposite Preeti. Eventually I fell in love with this character so much that I convinced my director to let me assay the role.&amp;quot; Deol recently launched a  schools awareness programme.
