The
buzz
in
the
industry
is
that
after
the
super-successful
Taxi
No.
9211,
Milan
Luthria
and
John
Abraham
are
once
again
coming
together
for
a
film
which
John
will
not
only
act
in
but
also
co-produce
with
Milan.
Milan
Luthria
confirmed,
"Yes...I
am
doing
a
film
with
John
Abraham.
This
is
a
script
which
we
have
been
working
on
for
the
past
8
months.
After
Taxi
No.
9211
(which
many
people
feel
is
John's
best
work
till
date),
John
and
I
felt
that
we
need
to
come
together
again.
As
far
as
John
co-producing
the
film
is
concerned,
we
are
in
talks,
the
logistics
need
to
be
worked
out
and
we
are
yet
to
finalize
the
details."
So
what
genre
will
the
film
belong
to?
"It's
a
very
unique
and
interesting
story.
Revealing
anything
more
at
this
point
of
time
will
spoil
the
fun.
But
let
me
tell
you
that
with
this
film
John
(who
is
already
a
chick-magnet)
will
be
catapulted
to
being
a
huge
international
heart-throb.
It
has
a
lot
of
potential
and
hence
we
are
trying
to
keep
the
story
under
wraps," said
Milan.
Before
this
film,
Milan
already
has
Once
Upon
A
Time
In
Mumbai
with
Ajay
Devgan
and
Emraan
Hashmi
in
lead
roles.
So
when
does
he
plan
to
start
this
film?
"We
have
worked
out
the
dates
with
John.
Right
now
he
is
in
the
middle
of
Hook
Ya
Crook
and
then
he
has
1-800
Love.
Even
I
am
also
busy
with
my
film
Once
Upon
A
Time
In
Mumbai
which
goes
on
floors
in
May
this
year.
I'll
finish
shooting
for
that
in
July
and
post
that,
somewhere
in
August
we
plan
to
start
this
film
with
John."
Coming
back
to
the
idea
of
John
co-producing
the
film,
how
did
this
all
happen?
"See...
John
has
a
very
strong
business
mind.
He
is
an
MBA
with
good
marketing
and
advertising
experience
at
the
corporate
level.
We
both
have
a
certain
level
of
trust
and
comfort
level
with
each
other.
When
we
discussed
about
this
film,
we
both
felt
that
we
needed
to
control
this
project
completely
because
apart
from
a
great
script,
the
film
also
has
a
lot
of
potential
for
marketing,
merchandising,
franchising,
tie-ups,
remakes
in
different
languages
etc.," said
the
excited
filmmaker.
Off-late,
more
and
more
actors
such
as
Akshay
Kumar,
Aamir
Khan,
Shahrukh
Khan
have
been
working
out
profit
sharing
models
for
their
respective
films.
So
is
this
trend
here
to
stay?
"Yes...
I
truly
believe
that
in
today's
time
and
age
this
kind
of
an
agreement
does
make
a
lot
of
financial
sense.
Star-prices
are
always
going
to
be
big
and
sometimes
when
the
budget
of
the
film
is
also
high,
how
do
you
adjust
all
together?
Even
in
Hollywood,
when
they
came
up
with
the
points
system
for
profit
sharing
there
was
a
very
high
amount
of
resistance
to
it
but
gradually
over
the
years,
actors
and
directors
began
to
accept
that
this
works.
At
the
end
of
the
day,
we
all
need
to
grow
beyond
being
just
actors
and
directors.
This
is
a
win-win
series
and
with
the
transparency
shown
by
the
corporates
this
is
a
system
which
is
here
to
stay," signed
off
Milan.
