Tuesday, 14th February 2016, 12:00 PM IST Apparently, Alia Bhatt has signed ‘The Lunchbox’ director Ritesh Batra’s next movie. The director had a script ready and was hunting for a leading lady for the film. Karan Johar, who co-produced ‘The Lunchbox’, asked Ritesh to narrate the script to Alia who loved it. A source said, “Alia has liked ‘The Lunchbox’ director Ritesh Batra’s script and is on board principally. It was her mentor Karan Johar, who had co-produced ‘The Lunchbox’, who got Ritesh to give the actress a narration as he loved the script. Ritesh was initially a little hesitant as he thought Alia was too big an actress to even approach. But Alia loved the story too. Right now the dates and financials are being worked out.” Now you can enjoy ad-free experience by downloading India’sfirst Box Office mobile app from here –Android: http://bit.ly/BOCapsuleMobileApp and iOS: bit.ly/BOCapsuleiOSApp |
