Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai poised to come together for Vishal Bhardwaj's adaptation of Hamlet

According to reliable sources, Vishal Bhardwaj has decided to do an adaptation of Hamlet. He apparently wants Hrithik Roshan to play the Prince Of Denmark and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, his Ophelia.

Hamlet would be Vishal's third Shakespearean adaptation after Maqbool which was taken from Shakespeare's Macbeth and Omkara which was Vishal's take on the Bard's Othello.

The director has always maintained he would do three Shakespearean adaptations in his career and then leave Shakespeare alone.

Like the earlier adaptations, Hamlet too would be very dissimilar to the Shakespearean original. While Vishal remained unavailable for comment, a source reveals, "He has indeed gone to Aishwarya and Hrithik with Hamlet.

He is charged about doing the last of his Shakespearean trilogy. In the past, he has approached both Hrithik and Aishwarya. Somehow things haven't worked out. This time, he's determined to make it."

Fact: Previously Hrithik-Aishwarya have worked together in Dhoom 2 (2006), Jodhaa Akbar (2008) and Guzaarish (2010)
