MUMBAI: PVR which started its film production plans with Aamir Khan has now roped in Director Rajkumar Santoshi. The deal will be to jointly produce two movies. One will be Ashoka starring Ajay Devgan in the title role and an untitled movie starring Shahid Kapur and Katrina Kaif.
Confirming the development to businessofcinema.com , PVR Films Cell, CEO, Ashish Saksena says, "We are in final stages of negotiations with Rajkumar Santoshi. It is a little early in the day to give out any details."
