Line of control

Mumbai, June 17: Katrina Kaif seems to have made a wise decision by bowing out of 7 Days in Paris after her role was reduced drastically by Imran Khan. The latest buzz about the film is that now the actor has completely taken over the project.

Commenting on Imran’s involvement with the project, a source said, “Imran is writing the screenplay. He is also scouting for locales with Gadhvi. At this rate, the actor may even ghost direct the film.”

Considering the involvement of the actor, the buzz is that he may be credited as the assistant director.

But how has the director taken to the actor’s interference? The source said, “Gadhvi has no issues with Imran’s creative inputs. The director trusts the actor’s instincts and judgment. However, it is a bit surprising that Imran is involving himself in so many departments of filmmaking so early in his career. His mama, Aamir Khan, went on to direct Taare Zameen Par after working as an actor for two decades. Imran should take it easy and concentrate on his acting alone.”

As for Katrina’s replacement, Gadhvi, sorry Imran, has zeroed in on Genelia D’Souza and Asin. “Kareena was asked, but she refused,” the source added.

Imran Khan chose not reply to our messages and calls. Sanjay Gadhvi too remained unavailable for comment.
