Hrithik we have learnt is super excited to do this not just because he will complete his hat-trick of working with Aish but because he has been genuinely floored by the script of the film and is eagerly looking forward to shooting for the film.
Hrithik simply can't stop raving about Sanjay Leela Bhansali and the script that he written for his film and of course his role in it.
This will be Hrithik's first venture with the Black director. Hrithik has seen Bhansali's earlier works and is keen to work with him. Bhansali is also looking forward to work with Hrithik as well. It is going to be a hat-trick for Bhansali as well as this will be his third venture with Aishwarya Rai after Devdas.
Bhansali was in Goa recently finalizing locales for the film. The film will be Bhansali's directorial venture after Saawariya. Meanwhile Sanjay Leela Bhansali's next prodcutional venture Chenab Gandhi is all set to go on floors in Mumbai very soon. Bhansali's assistant Vibhu Puri will direct the film starring Amitabh Bachchan, Vidya Balan and Hurman S. Baweja.
Bhansali and his Black writer Bhavani Iyer have written the film. The plot revolves around three characters. It is learnt that Chenab Gandhi is inspired by the story of Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan, India's freedom fighter who was known as the Frontier Gandhi. Bachchan will be playing the principle character in the film.
