Aamir and Ranbir in time travel flick
New actor on the block Ranbir Kapoor is in talks with renowned Hollywood director Shekhar Kapur for a film which will be based on time travel.
Shekhar has already shot portions of Time Machine, the film for which Ranbir is being sought, with actor Aamir Khan… and these scenes could be used for the final product.
Time Machine was shelved in 1992 but will now be restarted under the UTV banner. According to an Indian daily, Shekhar Kapur has signed a two-film deal with UTV for two films, Time Machine and Paani. The latter will commence in the second half of this year while Time Machine in mid 2009. Siddharth Raj Kapoor, executive vice-president, marketing, communication and syndicate, refused to comment on it. All he would say is, “Being a corporate house, we believe in making announcements. And at the moment, I’ve no idea what you’re talking about.”
He further adds that Aamir will no longer be a part of Time Machine and that Shekhar is keen on casting Ranbir Kapoor.
