Santosh Sivan teams up with SRK again

Santosh Sivan and Shah Rukh Khan will be working together again after Asoka (2001) in a semi adventure periodical.



Says Santosh, "The film will be full of adventures. I'm planning to take John Abraham too. We are working on the script."

Santosh says he enjoyed directing Shahrukh in Asoka. "Though the film didn't do well it was critically acclaimed for my cinematography. I am excited to work with Shahrukh again. We will start work on after he completes all his other assignments."

On his next film Tahaan which releases on September 5, he says, "It's about a journey of a boy who goes to find his donkey back and through his journey he meets interesting characters. It's a very big tussle for the boy to go and get his donkey back. So during this event there are so many things that happen. I thought of making it (the newspaper report) into a film but in a way that it's like a fable with morals and things like that but it has a lot of surprises."

He adds, "Moreover there are some interesting characters like the dumb shepherd played by Rahul Bose, half widow played by Sarika and Anupam Kher who guides the boy. The film gives you the message of friendship."

Before Tahaan, Sivan had directed The Terrorist but he shot to fame as a cinematographer for Dil Se (Chaiya Chaiya).

Santosh Sivan plans an Indiana Jones with SRK!

Santosh Sivan is all set to make a fantasy adventure film with Shah Rukh. Sources reveal that Sivan will team up with SRK after a gap of seven years. The two previously worked together in Asoka.

Not many know that Sivan's next will have shades of the popular Indiana Jones series. It is learnt that the untitled project will have SRK going on a quest like Indiana Jones searching for lost treasure.

Inspired

A source reveals, "It's a big budget film and will be an out- and-out action adventure. There will be shades of romance and comedy as well.

The inspiration for this film is the Indiana Jones franchise and will be made keeping the original in mind. Shah Rukh will start working on the film only after he winds up his other projects."
Apart from Shah Rukh, Sivan is also keen to cast John Abraham in the film.

"The film will be shot in various jungles and other exotic locations in India and abroad. Sivan is currently busy anticipating the release of his Rahul Bose Sarika-starrer Tahaan that releases early next month. After this, he will start the work on the Shah Rukh film."

Even though details of the project are still sketchy, sources confirm that it was Sivan's idea to make an adventure film in the genre of Indiana Jones. "Shah Rukh's character will lead the team into the jungles and that's where the action lies. Both SRK and John's roles are very physically demanding."
