Karan Johar and Ekta Kapoor are coming together in 2012 to produce a love story with a twist. The film will boast of two of the biggest stars of Bollywood. Read on to find out more...

Karan Johar: "Ekta and I are really close - even our families are very close so there was always talk of doing a film together. But we wanted to be sure it was the right one. Ekta came to me with the script. It was so entertaining that I just had to be part of it! I was very happy with the director - Akshay Roy, who is a very bright young boy. At Dharma, we believe in launching young talent. What excited me about the script is that it is a love story where the man and woman are taking each other on - in a powerful and sexy manner. There is a very strong man-woman chemistry based on a combination of sexual, social and political dynamics. Casting hasn't been finalised as yet. We want big stars to play the leads. I'm very proud of the way Ekta has structured her company. The projects she has been putting up are fantastic. I am very excited as I believe this to be a professional and emotional marriage and what has good energy will always show on screen."

Ekta Kapoor: "Karan and I had always thought of producing a film together but the credit of finally bringing us together goes to the President of Balaji Films, Swati Shetty. The film needed chutzpah and someone who could turn it into something bigger than it was. Karan heard just one line in the script and said he was on. It is a dream come true to work with one of the most prolific filmmakers of today. When I was just starting off in films, he was already a success but he hasn't changed at all. We have signed Akshay Roy to direct as he has a different sensibility. The film is an urban take on love - it is quirky, edgy, dramatic and intense! The lead actor is probably the edgiest male character from all the films I have made till now. Karan and I both loved the take on love as that emotion is something we know better than anyone else (laughs). We will start casting in a week."
