/> Laying completely to rest the ricocheting rumours of Ranvir Shorey's rift with Konkona Sen-Sharma, the two will be seen together in cinematographer Anil Mehta's directorial debut which is designed as Madhuri Dixit's comeback film.

"Madhuri has a dream role," says a member of the film's crew. "It's her story all the way. All the other actors are important but supportive. Madhuri plays a theatre actress. It's her character's 10-year old journey that forms the film's crux."

Though she had played a member of a dance troupe in Yashraj Films' Dil To Pagal Hai Madhuri has never played a role of a theatre actress before. In fact Anil Mehta's film would be the first since Gulzar's unreleased Libaas to be set in the theatre world.

Ranvir Shorey and Konkona will play a part of Madhuri's theatre group, while Anupam Kher has been penciled in to play Madhuri's mentor. Apparently Kunal Kapoor has also been approached to play a role.

The story, an absolute original, has nothing to do with the Suasan Sarandon-Julia Roberts tear-jerker Stepmom. Rumours of Mehta's movie being traceable to the Hollywood film have been making the rounds.

"But there's no truth to it. Madhuri won't do a Hollywood remake at this stage of her career," says the source.
