A
story
this
morning
informs
Amitabh
Bachchan
and
director
Ram
Gopal
Varma
that
they're
collaborating
on
a
film
called
–hold
your
breath—Cobra.
Before
we
all
begin
to
hiss
hysterically,
here's
the
catch.
Neither
of
the
two
parties
supposedly
involved
in
the
project
have
ever
heard
of
any
film
called
Cobra.
Nor
are
they
planning
to
work
on
any
film
by
that
title.
Ramu
who
has
taken
the
debacle
of
Aag
on
his
chin
is
amused.
"I
don"t
have
any
film
called
Cobra
with
Mr
Bachchan
and
Abhishek
in
mind.
I
hate
snakes,
except
when
Sridevi
plays
one
in
Nagin.
Both
the
Bachchans
have
completed
their
work
fully
on
Sarkar
2.
I
haven't
even
registered
the
title
Cobra,
so
I
don't
see
where
the
confusion
comes
from."
The
Bachchan"s
next
collaborative
effort
will
be
Time
Machine.
"Some
time
next
year.
That
requires
a
lot
of
planning.
After
Aag,
I
need
to
watch
my
steps," Ramu
jokes.
Mr.
Bachchan
also
denies
any
knowledge
of
any
project
called
Cobra.
"I
guess
the
papers
sometimes
know
things
about
my
projects
that
neither
me
nor
my
director
are
aware
of."
