Yash and Aditya Chopra and their favourite actor right now Shah Rukh Khan broke bread together recently to celebrate the stupendous success of Yash Raj's latest offering Chak De! India.
In May earlier this year, following Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge's 600-week run at Maratha Mandir, there was a buzz suggesting Aditya would get back into the director's chair and make a movie with his DDLJ hero. The movie expected to begin later this year is in the news once again as sources close to the actor say that during the meal the possibility of Yash Chopra directing the film was also discussed.
"SRK was very keen on doing the film even when Adi was supposed to direct it. But now it seems that Yash uncle might decide to direct it himself. They are still deciding on that. But the film is expected to go on floors at the end of the year or early next year based on everyone's dates," says our source.
Shah Rukh also received a lot of praise from the senior Chopra for turning around things for the banner. Chak De has earned 51 crores in India in its four weeks and over 2 million dollars in the UK and US.
Currently busy with Farah Khan's Om Shanti Om, which is being produced by SRK's Red Chillies, Khan is expected to begin filming for Raj Kumar Hirani's next based on the book Five Point Someone by Chetan Bhagat which is also expected to star John Abraham as well as Aditya Chopra's next.
