Salman Khan is slowly and steadly venturing into production. The actor is not only being choosy about the projects he will helm but he also wants those films to be a quality product.

If reports in a popular daily are to be believed, he will be producing a film based on the life of striptease artists.

Salman Khan has confirmed the news to a popular daily, "A Bengali man, who moved from India to America in the late 60s, struggled and created one of America's most iconic brands. We are going to tell the story of Somen Banerjee, a man driven by fierce ambition, on celluloid." (sic)

The biopic will be based on the life of Somen Banerjee, a Bengali immigrant, entrepreneur and founder of Chippendales (the popular nightspot best known for its male striptease performances and dancers who created a storm in the US in the 70s and 80s).

The story will start in Kolkatta and then will advance to Los Angeles and Europe.

Amar Butala of Salman's production house adds"The story of Somen Banerjee has all the shades of a gangster film raw greed, power and violence. We're currently working on the script and the plan is two-fold to produce a feature film and to develop it as a mini-series as well." (sic)
