While the buzz is going on over Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s ‘Guzaarish’, another news has cropped in the circle about Hrithik Roshan’s next.
Sources have it that Vishal Bhardwaj is gearing up to bring a remake of Academy Award winning movie, ‘The Departed’. Hrithik will be playing the character played by Leonardo Di Caprio in the English version. Said a source, “Vishal has got Hrithik’s dates from June after the actor finishes shooting for Sanjay Bhansali’s ‘Guzaarish’. So far only he has been cast. He plays Leo’s role and so he will have to hone his martial arts skills and gun-totting abilities by taking special classes from professionals.”
The untitled movie will be set in Mumbai and Vishal Bhardwaj is said to be maintaining the original storyline. Hrithik will be featured as a rough-tough undercover cop in this one. The actor is currently recovering from a knee injury and on doctor’s advice, is keeping away from risky actions. Once he is fit, Hrithik will be taking the professional training to try out the stunts in the movie.
Rub your palms, people! We’ll wait for this one!!
