Hrithik replaces Abhishek in Mani's bilingual

click for larger view
Abhishek Bachchan is out of Mani Ratnam's Tamil-Hindi bilingual. Hrithik Roshan has reportedly replaced him. Mani is all set to launch his yet untitled bilingual film in Hindi and Tamil soon; for which the filming will commence in his hometown Chennai. The Hindi version will boast of a rocking cast of Ajay Devgan, Vivek Oberoi, Hrithik Roshan, Rani Mukherjee, Kareena Kapoor and Simran in the lead roles. After completing the Hindi language version, Mani will shoot non-stop for the Tamil version in a start to finish schedule, which will feature an equally huge cast of Madhavan, Surya, Shaam, Simran, Meera Jasmine and Trisha in the lead roles. Both the versions will be released simultaneously by the year-end. Ravi K Chandran will handle the camera for this epic. And of course, it goes without saying that A R Rahman will compose the music.

Abhishek is very much in the movie!.....

Abhishek to shoot in Kolkata
PRIYANKA DASGUPTA AND AMRITA MUKHERJEE

TIMES NEWS NETWORK[ TUESDAY, JUNE 24, 2003 04:15:55 AM ]

Trust Mani Ratnam to keep information about his latest Hindi film under wraps. The lead stars of his film are tight lipped. “Mani sir doesn’t like us to talk about the film,” they echo almost in unison, even when they are in a mood to give candid interviews about anything under the sun.

The set designer won’t talk about it even when we know that he has been assigned to replicate Kolkata in Chennai. Cameraman Ravi. K. Chandran is using the latest lens to give the film a minty cool campus look. But ask him about the storyline and he’ll suddenly get too busy behind the lens. As for Ratnam himself, he is not available for comments since he believes that reticence is the secret of success!

But that’s where Calcutta Times comes in. Even with the best of efforts Ratnam couldn’t manage to keep his plans of shooting in Kolkata under wraps. Come July and the entire cast of his film comprising Ajay Devgan, Rani Mukherjee, Vivek Oberoi, Abhishek Bachchan and Kareena Kapoor will park themselves here for a month-long shooting schedule.

The film is apparently set in Kolkata. At present, Ratnam is shooting in Chennai in a set that has attempted to recreate Kolkata. A dozen ambassador cars have been painted yellow to resemble the Kolkata taxis with WB registration numbers. No cell phones are being allowed on the sets as the film is being shot in sync-sound like Lagaan and Dil Chahta Hai.

Incidentally, this is Mani Ratnam’s second Hindi film after Dil Se. Speaking about his Kolkata shooting schedule, Abhishek said, “I was in Kolkata last for shooting Raja Sen’s Desh. But shooting for that was held in north Bengal. I’ll be in Kolkata in July to shoot for this untitled film of Mani Ratnam.” But quiz him more about his role and Abhishek takes guard. “I think Mr Ratnam wouldn’t want me to talk about that.” All he’ll say is that contrary to media reports, he isn’t playing a villain in the film.

Guess for more updates we will have to wait for them to come over to the city.

I only hope the extras look convincingly Bengali and not talk with strange accents.

Finally he gets onto the sync sound bandwagon. I hope he gets Nakul Kamte or someone of his calibre.

Sorry! I stand corrected. I saw a trailor for this movie yesterday, and guess what.......Hrithik turns into a superhero (looking suspiciously similar to how he looked in Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai) after his encounter with the alien.... :bangbang:
