Abhishek Bachchan plays a ladies' man in an upcoming Raj Kumar Santoshi film

Abhishek Bachchan will soon be seen in Raj Kumar Santoshi's romcom Ladies & Gentleman. He will start shooting right after he completes his next schedule of Abbas-Mustan's Players in Russia by the end of July.

While Aishwarya Rai Bachchan plays the beauty who walks away with Bachchan, sources say that Santoshi is in a tizzy signing on different Bollywood beauties to be part of this film, in cameo roles.

Apparently, Bachchan will ask all his friends to do cameos to add to the glamour quotient of the film. Those expected to be part of the film include Bipasha Basu, Vidya Balan, Preity Zinta, Sonam Kapoor and Sushmita Sen.

While Santoshi is unwilling to divulge details about the bevy of glamorous girls in his film, he admits that there are some arresting cameos lined up for the film.

"There will definitely be quite a few surprises in the story. I wouldn't say Abhishek's character is a womaniser " there's nothing cheesy about his character. He's a very suave, sophisticated charmer who thinks he is a ladies man, " says Santoshi.

The ladies, we are given to understand, are quite willing to waltz across the film.

"Dad has worked with Santoshi in Khakee. The director, dad and I were supposed to get together for a film, but it didn't take off. Now I'm looking forward to working with him. He's a brilliant director. And I also get to work with my favourite co-star, my wife, " says Bachchan.
