What's Farhan Akhtar making next, after DON? Sure, he produced HONEYMOON TRAVELS PVT. LTD. and awaits the release of ROCK ON!! (he makes his acting debut with this film), but he hasn't placed himself on the 'Director's Chair' for a while now. But the wait is over!

Farhan begins filming VOICE FROM THE SKY from next month onwards. Is it an English film? "It's not! But it's a film that has tremendous international appeal. There's an audience for this film beyond India, " Farhan's partner Ritesh Sidhwani confirms, "It's a period film set in 1905 in Kolkata. It's about a child and the telephone invention. It's a fairytale. In fact, Farhan wanted to make this film immediately after DIL CHAHTA HAI." So far, only Akshaye Khanna has been confirmed for the film.

Meanwhile, Ritesh and Farhan have also made Zoya (Farhan's sister) realize her dreams. Her directorial debut LUCK BY CHANCE is already complete. "Zoya has been working on the script since last five years.

It's about the film industry that she has seen since her childhood in the 1970s, till now. It's about a struggling actor (Farhan Akhtar), a superstar (Hrithik Roshan), a Punjabi producer (Rishi Kapoor), a junior artiste (Konkona Sen Sharma). Plus, a whole lot of stars making special appearances, including Aamir and Shah Rukh Khan, " Ritesh divulges.

A sequel to DON is also in the pipeline. "Two people whom we didn't know at all came up with the idea of the sequel. We fell for it instantly. The script is finally complete and we begin filming next year, " Ritesh states. Of course, Shah Rukh Khan would head the cast of the film.
