Aamir Khan's 1000 Crore Worth Magnum Opus MAHABHARATA To Be Co-Produce

According to what the rumour mill is
churning out, the Reliance owner Mukesh
Ambani, who had recently invested in
entertainment companies like Eros and Ekta
Kapoor's Balaji, will co-produce superstar
Aamir Khan's most ambitious film yet, the
Mahabharata series, for the big screen. The
source has also said that this would be a
"one-off" engagement for Ambani.
Mahabharata has already created much buzz
in film trade circles as the budget of the
franchise is flying over an Rs. 1,000 crore.
This franchise is likely to comprise anywhere
between three to five parts, involving
multiple directors (One of them possibly
being Bahubali director S.S. Rajamouli). The
film is only at a pre-production/ideation
stage. Sources say international writers will
be brought in to sharpen Mahabharata's
story-line, to appeal to a global audience.
Late last year, Aamir Khan's planned
magnum opus - something he has publicly
spoken about as his dream project in the
past - came into news, when the actor-
producer had to turn down Mahesh Mathai's
biopic on cosmonaut Rakesh Sharma (which
is now bagged by Shah Rukh Khan), to be
produced by Siddharth Roy Kapur, owing to
the big-ticket series that's going to
singularly keep him busy for the next few
years.

three to five film means minimum 6-7 years.
