Ranbir will do Kishore Kumar biopic if made after 2017: Anurag Basu


Anurag Basu says he is keen to start biopic on Kishore Kumar next year, a slot when Ranbir Kapoor is unavailable.


Director Anurag Basu says he is keen to start biopic on legendary singer-actor Kishore Kumar next year, a slot when Ranbir Kapoor is unavailable, but if the project gets further pushed, the actor will be on board it.
Months ago, it was announced that Ranbir would essay the role of Kishore Kumar but Basu says at the moment, the actor is not part of the movie as he doesn't have dates next year.

"The biopic is definitely happening. Ranbir Kapoor is not doing it right now. If I start it in 2017 then Ranbir will not be able to do it... then I will go with some other actor. And Ranbir is okay with it. He has also told me that if it is further delayed (to 2018) then he will be able do it," Basu told PTI.
There have been reports that Aamir Khan may play the titular role. There is, however, no official confirmation on this.
"Scripting is done. In all likelihood, I will start work on the biopic from 2017. But before that I have another film to start - Life In A Metro' sequel," Basu said of the film.

According to the filmmaker, the family of Kishore Kumar is feeling restless about the impending status of the biopic.
"The director is ready, producer is ready, family of Kishore Kumar is ready. They are waiting for it to start, they are getting restless. They were too excited to start the film soon," he said.
Basu is also busy with kids dance reality show "Super Dancer", where he is a judge besides Shilpa Shetty and choreographer Geeta Kapur.
