Priyadarshan to direct Aamir and Tabu

Bollywood director Priyadarshan is planning to cast Aamir Khan and Tabu in his latest movie which will be themed on AIDS. This will be the first time the pair will be seen together on-screen. The two had earlier starred in Fanaa but didn't have any scenes together. Aamir has already given a green signal for the 95 minute realistic movie while Priyadarshan is still in talks with Tabu.

Priyadarshan whose realistic movie Kanchivaram has won a National Award said he was confident that audience was open to watching his realistic films as like his comedies. The director also added that it was only perfectionist Aamir who could take the message to the masses. He also dismissed rumours that he had initially thought of casting Akshay Kumar in the movie.
