Priyanka Chopra and Harman Baweja in Ashutosh Gowarikar’s Next

 Ashutosh Gowariker is ready to start his next film after Jodhaa Akbar. And this time round, Gowariker is planning something different. The director is believed to have brought the rights of an English play and is currently adapting it into a screenplay for a movie. The news doing the rounds is that he has signed on Harman Baweja, who is yet to make his debut, and his beloved Priyanka Chopra, to play the lead in his movie.
Ashutosh’s forthcoming film is being labeled a romantic comedy. This will mark a departure from the kind of films that he has directed in the past. All of them beginning with Lagaan and going on to Swades and Jodhaa Akbar, have been mounted on an epic scale. But this time round, Gowariker wants to change things by making a light hearted, quickie. The film is believed to based on a play which is about the traditional arranged marriage system, as it is prevalent in India. Gowariker had seen the rushes and promos of Harry Baweja’s Love Story 2050 and was impressed with what he saw of Harman that he signed him on. The film, which will be a co production between Ashutosh Gowariker Productions and UTV Motion Pictures, is expected to go on the floors by the end of the year. It will be shot in Mumbai and certain foreign locations.
