/> After four years of slothful silence, Goldie Behl returns to direction with a film again stars his buddy Abhishek Bachchan.

The project mysteriously called Drona is being kept under wraps. (Following the Yashraj pattern every filmmaker wants to be secretive now).

But it's reliably known that Drona willl be Bollywood's answer to Harry Potter. With special effects and gadgetry galore, it will have the kind of budget technique and spectacle that would carry forward the legacy of optical opulence created by Krissh and hopefully Dhoom 2.

According to a source, " Drona will be set in California. Abhishek plays a timid mousy bespectacled nerd who goes through a series of supernatural experiences. Priyanka Chopra has been approached to play the neighbourhood tomboy who's Abhishek's unofficial bodyguard. "

Priyanka took a series of rigorous martial arts classes before she was ready for the athletic part.

Says Abhishek, "This film will be closer to what the director thinks and feels than his first film Bas Itna Sa Khwab Hai."
