Films on three Khans not finalised yet: Sajid Nadiadwala

June 6, 2015

Kuala Lumpur, Jun 6: Filmmaker Sajid Nadiadwala today said that he is keen to bring the three Khans --Aamir, Salman and Shah Rukh -- together for a film but he has not finalised anything as of now.

KhansThe director said he had expressed a desire to make the film after working with Salman in "Kick".

"A year back when I finished 'Kick', people asked me about my next. I told them that the thing which fascinates me is getting the three Khans on board.

"Salman is a good friend and I have good equation with Shah Rukh and Aamir. If I get a go ahead, I would definitely love to do it," Sajid told PTI on the sidelines of IIFA Weekend and Awards here.

It seems the three Khans have reunited after Shah Rukh and Aamir showed support towards Salman's Eid release "Bajrangi Bhaijaan" by unveiling the film's first look on their Twitter pages.

Besides the big stars, Sajid said his production house is also working with newcomers.

"I love to give chance to new talent. They are just incredible. But I believe the Khans will rule the industry for at least next 20 years," he added.

The producer-director is in the Malaysian capital to scout location for his upcoming film "Baaghi", starting Shraddha Kapoor and Tiger Shroff.

"I will be shooting my next production venture 'Baaghi' in Malaysia. This will be the first time I will be shooting any film in this country. My production team is getting things done with the government," he said.

Produced by Sajid and UTV Motion Pictures, the film will be helmed by Sabbir Khan, who also directed Tiger's debut film "Heropanti".

Mumbai, Aug 2: Oscar-winning director Alfonso Cuaron has come aboard as an executive producer on filmmaker Chaitanya Tamhane's movie The Disciple. The Marathi feature is set to represent India at the 77th edition of the Venice Film Festival. It will be screened in the Competition section of the prestigious film gala.

The movie, which is Tamhane's follow-up to his National Award-winning feature Court, has also been selected for 2020 Toronto International Film Festival's official line-up.

"I met Chaitanya through a mentorship program where I had the opportunity to watch his very superb debut film, Court  I was immediately impressed by his sense of cinema and fearless confidence to tell stories.

"He was part of most of Roma's process and I jumped to the opportunity to be part of the process of his second film The Disciple. I believe Chaitanya is one of the most important new voices of contemporary cinema," Cuaron said in a statement.

Tamhane said he is honoured to have Cuaron aboard the film.

"It’s a bit surreal and an incredible honour for me to have one of the most recognised and acclaimed filmmakers in the world be part of 'The Disciple'. In some ways, this validation from Alfonso Cuaron is even more," he added.

The Disciple, a 127-minute long feature, stars Aditya Modak, Arun Dravid, Sumitra Bhave, and Kiran Yadnyopavit. It has been produced by “Sir” actor Vivek Gomber through his Zoo Entertainment Pvt. Ltd.

The Disciple marks Tamhane’s return to Venice after he won the Best Film - Orizzonti and Lion of the Future award for Court in 2014.

Court, a poignant commentary on India's judicial system, also won the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in 2015 and was India's official entry for the Best Foreign Film at the 2016 Oscars.

Endeavor Content will sell North American rights and New Europe Film Sales boards the film as an international sales agent.
