One
of
the
most
exciting
projects
to
have
been
announced
this
year
is
the
third
time
teaming
up
of
the
scion
of
the
Yash
Raj
empire,
ace
director
Aditya
Chopra
and
Bollywood's
global
superstar
Shahrukh
Khan.
The
last
two
ventures
that
these
two
power
giants
of
Bollywood
came
together
for
were,
Dilwale
Dulhania
Le
Jayenge
and
Mohabbatein,
both
of
which
struck
gold
at
the
ticket
window.
An
amazing
stat
about
the
team's
first
venture,
Dilwale
Dulhania
Le
Jayenge
is
that
the
film
is
still
running
at
Bombay's
Maratha
Mandir
in
its
645th
combined
week
and
has
netted
an
astonishing
11.80
crores
from
the
city
(excluding
Thane).
DDLJ
still
leads
King
Khan's
latest
blockbuster,
Om
Shanti
Om
by
about
30
lakhs!
Amazing,
isn't
it?
Coming
to
the
project
which
forced
Shahrukh
Khan
to
cut
short
his
much
deserved
vacation
(post
the
triumph
of
Chakde!
India
and
Om
Shanti
Om),
Rab
Ne
Bana
Di
Jodi,
the
film
is
all
set
to
go
before
the
camera
in
mid-May.
And
contrary
to
speculations,
no
lead
heroine
(not
even
Rani
Mukherjee)
has
been
finalized
and
the
search
for
a
new
face
opposite
King
Khan
continues.
