Another space film after 'Salute'?.

With special effects becoming more and
more accessible to filmmakers in the
East, rumours are rife about two space
genre films are soon to come out of
Bollywood. And they both have a
husband working on one, and his wife
working on the other.
According to Deccan Chronicle,
when Mahesh Mathai and Siddharth Roy
Kapur began brainstorming the idea of
making such a film that would depict the
life of real astronaut Rakesh Sharma,
they seemed to be on quite a roll, even
managing to sign Priyanka Chopra and
Aamir Khan. However, when they both
ended up dropping out of the project,
the producers had to go back to the
drawing board. Now after much
deliberation, the makers of the film have
managed to get none other than Shah
Rukh Khan on board. Now, although
Khan is spending much of his time
working on the release of his
forthcoming Zero', he will be investing a
lot in this one too.
With Roy Kapur in the midst of working
on the biopic, his wife Vidya Balan, who
has turned out to be his professional
competition, has been signed for
another space thriller that will also star
Akshay Kumar and Nimrat Kaur. The yet
to be titled film will be directed by Jagan
Shakti and will be another joint
production between R Balki and Viacom
18.
Looks like these will definitely be ones to
look out for.
