A source reveals that the director was in talks with the production house over the past two years. "After watching his Oscar-nominated film Lagaan and the majestic Jodhaa Akbar, the top brass at the studio felt he had the sensibilities to helm the big-budget musical drama. The deal was recently sealed. Gowariker and his team are fine-tuning the story that will be shot across India and the US. Due to the crisis, the recce is on hold. The team, however, has begun casting and will lock the leads in the coming months." Having previously worked with Hugh Jackman, Sandra Bullock and Johnny Depp, among others, the studio is in discussion with a few notable actors for the venture.
