Bollywood director Karan Johar is fascinated by the scenic beauty of Poland and hopes to shoot some of his forthcoming films in idyllic locales here.

"Poland is a very exciting place for outdoor shoots for Bollywood movies. If the subject of my forthcoming film is related to foreign locations, I will certainly select Poland as it has tremendous scenic beauty and proper technology, which is much cheaper than anywhere in the West. Also, Poles are very warm people," Johar told in an interview here.

The director is in the Polish capital as a jury member for the Miss World 2006 beauty pageant. "It is a great honour for a Bollywood director to be invited for a global event. I hope I handle this event to the best of my ability."

Karan Johar's "Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham" was the first Indian commercial movie to be released with Polish subtitles in January 2005 and it proved to be a super hit across Poland.

With the release of "Kal Ho Na Ho", Shah Rukh Khan became a poster boy for the young Poles. Now cinema-goers here are eagerly awaiting the release of Johar's latest movie "Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna" (KANK).

"The details are being worked out for the film's release in Poland. I will certainly try to come to Warsaw when this movie will be released with Polish sub-titles," Johar said.

"I am extremely happy that KANK is doing fantastic business in overseas markets. It has already grossed 2.75 million pounds in Britain and hopefully it will break the record of 'Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham' soon.

"We're also going to release KANK in Germany, which has a huge potential market of 85 million people, the largest in the European Union," the director added.
