Ranbir and Imran in Shimit’s next?

After Chak De! India, Shimit Amin is back in the director’s chair for Yash Raj Films and this time he has signed on Imran Khan and Ranbir Kapoor for his movie.
A source says that Imran and Ranbir were keen to work together and Yash Raj Films is giving them the opportunity. The two get along well and have been searching for scripts and directors who would take on both.
“For months now, Imran and Ranbir have been meeting various directors. They have met Subhash Ghai, Mukesh and Mahesh Bhatt, Vipul Shah as well as the directors they have worked with in the past. They were also looking at scripts so that they could work together. Ranbir already has a hit with Yash Raj Productions,” says the source.
“In fact, they approached both Imtiaz Ali and Shimit to come up with good scripts in which the two could star. While Imtiaz is working on a script, Shimit, who was keen to get back behind the camera, has got YRF to back his film with Ranbir and Imran in the lead,” adds the source.
