Rumours are rife that Bollywood actress Madhuri Dixit is to star opposite two-film-old Ranbir Kapoor in filmmaker- turned-politician Prakash Jha's next production.

This won't be the first time Madhuri will be working with Jha. She has earlier won critical acclaim for her performance in his film "Mrityudand" (1997).

Madhuri who made a comeback in movies with Yash Raj Films' "Aaja Nachle" (2008), which did not do well at the box office, has earlier worked with Ranbir's father Rishi in films like "Yaarana" and "Prem Granth".

Ranbir is also starring in another of Jha's films, titled "Rajneeti".
