Akbar
Khan's
Taj
Mahal
didn't
work
wonders,
either
in
India
or
in
Pakistan.
However
the
filmmaker
is
all
set
to
work
on
his
next
international
film
Chenghiz
Khan.
Calling
it
a
first
Indian
historical
film
for
international
audience,
Akbar
Khan
informed
that
the
film
will
be
in
English
and
for
an
all
international
audience.
Speaking about its story line he said, "This is a premature stage of the script. We are still in the scripting stage. And as I said this film will be for international audience, we are looking out for an all international star cast. Similarly, I am planning to shoot this film in Mongolia, Peshawar, China and Afghanistan."
According to him, he relates to historical genre that compels him to make historical films. "It gives me a creative satisfaction and that's the only reason I involve in historical projects. But as a filmmaker I would like to make modern films too. I'll make some modern films but all my attention now is on Chenghiz Khan."
When quizzed what interests him to make a film on Chenghiz Khan, Khan replied, "Chenghiz Khan is a universal cult figure. He was from Mongolia and was recorded seriously and secretly in Mongolian history. This film will reveal Chenghiz Khan's life as a great warrior and will also talk about his love life. I am planning to start this at the end of the year and it will release sometime in next year."
