So
what's
the
latest
on
Vishal
Bhardwaj's
international
project
with
Hrithik
Roshan
and
a
leading
lady
from
Hollywood?
"Hrithik
isn't
doing
the
film
anymore.
The
role
isn't
substantial
enough,
that's
one
of
the
reasons," Vishal
informs
me.
What
about
the
leading
lady?
Reportedly,
the
fee
quoted
by
her
agents
was
almost
70%
of
the
film's
budget?
"No,
we
didn't
talk
money.
Actually,
we
never
reached
that
stage,"
Vishal
reveals,
"We
merely
had
discussions
and
more
discussions."
So
what
is
he
making
now?
"I
haven't
zeroed
on
any
script.
It
sounds
strange,
but
when
I
plan
something,
it
never
materializes.
For
instance,
I
was
supposed
to
direct
Mantra
for
Shekhar
Kapoor,
but
it
never
took
off.
Or
Timbaktoo,
but
it
never
got
made.
And
Mr.
Mehta&Mrs.
Singh,
but
it
got
aborted.
All
I
know
is
that
I
want
to
start
something
before
December
this
year," he
states
with
utmost
honesty.
