Anurag Basu could be producing the sequel of his earlier film 'Life in a Metro'

While Anurag Basu has already begun work on his next project on legendary singer Kishore Kumar, the unavailability of his lead actor Ranbir Kapoor has left the filmmaker with some time in hand.

Apparently, he has decided to venture into production. And one of the projects that have caught his eye is apparently the sequel to his earlier film Life in a Metro.

A source says, `Anurag has almost 10 months to go before Ranbir gives him dates for the Kishore Kumar biopic. Till then he has decided to produce films.` Insiders say unlike for Life in a Metro, Anurag will not be directing the project.
