| ||||
Tuesday, 14th April 2015, 3:40 PM IST Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Shahrukh Khan are all set to clash at the box-office on Christmas this year with their respective films ‘Bajirao Mastani’ and ‘Dilwale’. But, not just the release date, it looks like they have a lot of things in common. It is said that both SRK and SLB are planning to produce a Marathi film under their banners and are opting to rope in actor Swapnil Joshi for their respective films. Earlier there were reports that SRK will be producing a Marathi film to be directed by Rohit Shetty. However, a source said that now SRK and Rohit will be co-producing a Marathi flick which will be directed by Sanjay Jadhav. The source said, "It will have Swapnil Joshi and Sai Tamhankar in the lead, along with Urmila Kanitkar and Ankush Choudhary. However unlike Sanjay's 2013 emotional drama ‘Duniyadari’, this one will be more of a masala action-comedy in Rohit Shetty mould. The story by Sanjay immediately struck a chord with Rohit. They haven't set a timeline yet but the project is definitely on." SRK had earlier stated that he won’t mind doing a cameo in his Marathi flick. When source was asked about it, the source said, “If SRK agrees to do the film I'm sure the writer-director and his co-producer will be more than happy to accommodate him." Even SLB is in plans to produce a Marathi flick. CEO of SLB’s production house, Shobha Iyer Sant, confirmed the news and said, "Yes, SLB Productions is definitely going to be exploring the regional space in a big way. And yes, we are in talks with Swapnil but it's too early to go into details." When Joshi was contacted he just said “No comments”.
