Vadodara
(UNI):
Even
as
Aamir
Khan
starrer
Fanaa
faces
a
ban
in
Gujarat
for
his
alleged
stand
on
the
Narmada
dam
project,
a
young
Delhi-based
director-cum-producer
is
contemplating
to
shoot
a
documentary
film
in
Gujarat
with
Aamir
as
its
anchor.
Siddharth
Khanna,
who
is
here
to
see
the
locations
for
his
proposed
documentary
film
on
'Chandod',
a
famous
place
of
pilgrimage
in
Vadodara,
said
on
his
return
to
Mumbai,
he
would
request
Aamir
to
do
the
anchoring
of
the
film
despite
the
current
row
over
release
of
Fanaa
over
the
actor's
remarks
on
the
dam
issue.
Although
the
young
producer
does
not
agree
with
Aamir's
stand
on
the
Narmada
dam
project,
he
is
optimistic
about
his
participation
and
support
to
his
45-minute
documentary
film
aimed
at
giving
the
pilgrimage,
located
on
the
bank
of
the
holy
Narmada
river,
its
due
recognition
and
help
promote
tourism
in
the
State.
Khanna,
who
visited
the
holy
place
recently
on
an
invitation
from
Union
Minister
of
Railways
Naran
Rathwa's
son
Sangram
Rathwa,
told
UNI
that,
''I
am
impressed
with
the
religious
importance
of
the
place
for
being
the
'triveni
sangam'
of
the
Narmada,
the
Saraswati
and
the
Mahi,
and
its
scenic
beauty
and
temple
architecture
in
and
around
Chandod.''
Khanna,
who
has
two
regional
and
several
advertisement
films
to
his
credit,
said
he
was
ready
start
shooting
for
the
documentary
in
the
next
fortnight
provided
speedy
approval
was
obtained
from
the
Gujarat
government.
The
documentary,
which
is
to
be
shown
in
different
film
festivals
and
other
media,
would
go
a
long
way
in
bringing
more
domestic
and
international
tourists
to
the
place,
he
hoped.
