It also impressed Mr. Perfectionist Aamir Khan in the process.
Now Aamir's Hindi version of 'Ghajini' is the most anticipated film this Christmas.
Seems like many others, King Khan is mighty impressed by the sleek promos of 'Ghajini' and Aamir's macho look.
The buzz is that SRK has now zeroed in on the director and he's really keen on doing his next film with him.
Cinematographer Ravi K Chandran who has filmed the actor's projects 'Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi', 'My Name is Khan' as well commercials is said to have recommended Murugadoss.
In fact some officials from King Khan's Red Chillies met him recently to discuss some scripts.
However, things would be finalized by first week of January after the box office results of 'Ghajini' are out.
In fact South Indian Actress Asin, the female lead in 'Ghajini', has assured that she would give her dates to the project.
Reportedly the filmmaker had plans to work with Southern actor Surya after 'Ghajini'. But with SRK around, it's likely that the original plan has changed. After all, one big Khan to another would be a much better bet. We understand very well, Mr Murugadoss!
