Hollywood's big studio Warner Bros made their Bollywood entry early this year with the super duper flop Chandni Chowk To China starring Akshay Kumar.

But it seems the film's tanking hasn't deterred their plans to continue their Bollywood journey. They have now joined hands with B.R. Studios and are all set to invest whopping Rs.500 crore for a multi film deal with them.

B.R. Films; started by late B.R. Chopra (the elder brother of Yash Chopra) over more than 50 years back, is now run by his son Ravi Chopra who has made film under the banner such as Baghban and Baabul.

Now the first film to be made under the Warner-B.R. Films tie up shall see Ravi's elder son Abhay directing Kohinoor and it will star Chopra's younger son Kapil in the lead role.

Two big Hollywood stars are being approached for other important roles in the film as well. Bollywood insiders feel roping in the big stars from Hollywood won't be much of a problem for Chopra since it's a Warner tie up.

Ravi Chopra had been facing financial problems with his recent works such as his Deepa Mehta directed film Videsh flopping and also facing copyright violations problem from 20th Century Fox for his My Cousin Vinny inspired film Banda Yeh Bindaas Hai.

This Warner tie up will bring him back in the big league once again.
