The
Film
Is
Close
To
Imtiaz
Ali's
Heart
To
be
written
and
directed
by
Imtiaz,
this
film
is
one
of
his
long
cherished
projects;
a
love
story
very
close
to
his
heart
that
he
has
always
wanted
to
explore
on
the
big
screen.
The
research
on
the
film
is
currently
underway.
It's
Imtiaz
Ali's
Dream
Project
Talking
about
the
project
Imtiaz
said,
"I
have
always
been
fascinated
by
the
eternal
love
story
of
Radha
and
Krishna.
In
all
of
Indian
folklore
I
know
of
no
other
story,
which
is
so
intensely
personal
and
yet
has
such
an
epic
scale.
It
has
been
my
dream
to
step
into
the
world
of
Radha
Krishna."
Folks,
You
Will
Have
To
Wait
For
Some
Time
While
this
epic
will
be
one
of
Imtiaz's
upcoming
directorial
ventures,
it
is
not
the
one
that
he
will
be
directing
next
due
to
the
extensive
research
and
pre-production
that
are
required
for
a
project
of
this
scale.
Imtiaz
Always
Wanted
To
Make
A
Film
On
Radha-Krishna
A
Bollywood
Hungama
report
quoted
Imtiaz
as
saying,
"I
have
wanted
to
get
involved
for
a
very
long
time.
I
don't
think
in
the
Indian
mythology
that
something
like
Radha
Krishna
exists
which
is
so
personal
and
so
epic.
There
are
lots
of
things
that
one
has
to
learn
from
that.
There
are
so
many
things
that
are
heart
wrenching
and
so
beautiful
at
the
same
time
and
the
scale
is
so
epic
and
we
are
talking
about
Krishna
and
Radha
as
humans,
as
people
with
feelings.
I
am
really
very
excited."
Has
He
Locked
The
Star
Cast?
To
this,
he
replied,
"I
don't
have
a
starcast
and
I
don't
even
have
a
time
table.
In
terms
of
research
and
writing
and
the
technicalities
the
way
it's
going
to
be
mounted
will
take
a
while.
I
want
to
give
it
that
time."
