Susi Ganeshan wishes to cast Salman as superhero

Southern filmmaker Susi Ganeshan, currently busy promoting his debut Hindi film "Shortcut Romeo", says his next venture will be a superhero film and he wants to cast Salman Khan in it.

"My next film is a superhero action film, which will be in 3D. The script is almost ready and I want to cast Salman Khan. It's a larger than life character and Salman is one of the actors who can pull off this role," Ganeshan told IANS.

The film is tentatively titled "Hutchman". The director, however, has not approached Salman so far.

"Salman is busy with his films and I have not met him so far, neither have I approached him. He suits the role very well. He is certainly in my wish list. Let's see how things shapes up," said the director.

Known for making with Tamil films "Five Star", "Virumbugiren", "Thiruttu Payale" and "Kanthaswamy", Ganeshan has teamed up with Neil Nitin Mukesh, Puja Gupta and Ameesha Patel for his first Hindi movie "Shortcut Romeo", a romantic crime thriller that is coming out June 21.
