Now who initiated this change in plans is not
sure but chances are that Shah Rukh’s lack
of dates (he is busy with Om Shanthi Om, followed
by a movie to be directed by Shrish Kunder and
then the proposed Robot with Shankar) and Ramgopal
Verma’s fast working style where he doesn’t
like to wait for anyone are the reasons. But be
informed that there is no tiff between the actor
and director.
But things aren’t as bad as the above piece
of information. It is just that Time Machine will
not be made with Shah Rukh in the lead but it
will still be made and in place of the King will
be the Shahenshah of Bollywood. Yes, Amitabh Bachchan
will star in Time Machine, Abhishek too will feature
in an important role. Well, isn’t that really
good if not as good as the plans that were dropped.
Now this will be Ramgopal Verma’s third
consecutive directorial venture with the Bachchan’s
after Sarkar , Sarkar Raj and Ramgopal Verma Ki
Aag, not to forget Nishabd. They sure seem to
get along well.
