After his disastrous "Taj Mahal: An Eternal Love Story", filmmaker Akbar Khan has decided to go ahead with yet another historical epic and is getting ready for "Genghis Khan" in English.

"I have deliberately chosen to make it an English language film because I want to prove that English language films aren't merely the domain of Hollywood producers. Indian producers are equally capable of making quality English language productions with the same technical finesse and special effects," said Khan.

Khan has already started research on the film and is planning to have an international cast for it.

"I am hoping to rope in some prominent Hollywood names in it," he said, adding that the film will be shot in Mongolia, Uzbekistan and several other places in the world.

Interestingly, Khan plans to portray the ruthless Mongol king as a great visionary. He said: "We only know him as a villain, whose quest for power made him an autocratic dictator. Few of us know that he was also a great visionary who built palaces, edifices and bridges."

The film will go on floors sometime in December 2006.
