| |||
Wednesday, 27th May 2015, 3:16 PM IST Few days ago, there were reports that Vishal Bhardwaj has roped in Saif Ali Khan and Shahid Kapoor for his next. And now, even Kangana Ranaut has been roped in to star in the film which is titled as ‘Rangoon’. The movie is set against the backdrop of the Second World War. It’s a dream project for Vishal and it will be a Casablanca-like love triangle. Vishal said, "It's my most expensive film to date and will be my most musical." Talking about the subject of the film, Vishal said, "If you visit a cemetery in Imphal, Manipur, you will see the graves of so many young soldiers who lost their lives in the Second World War. And the dark irony is that Indians were killing Indians because some of these soldiers fought for the British army against Subhash Chandra Bose's Indian National Army in Rangoon." He was in plans to start ‘Kaminey 2’ after ‘Haider’, but later decided to helm his dream project. Talking about the cast, Vishal said, "I'm looking forward to reuniting with Saif and Shahid who I've worked with earlier in ‘Omkara’ and ‘Kaminey’ and ‘Haider’. And Kangana with whom it'll be a first." Recently, Kangana and Vishal had met in Paris and the actress had treated the director with a lavish dinner. "She served me the most expensive wines and I'm still intoxicated. She's a brilliant actress and though that night itself we had agreed to work together, I hadn't been sure about my next project then. She was always my first choice for ‘Rangoon’ but till I could offer it to her, I didn't want to talk about it because I was afraid kissi ki nazar na lag jaye. I'm sure we will challenge each other as we approach this cinematic journey together," the director said.
