Aamir Khan to play Hanuman, the super-hero?



After Hrithik Roshan’s ‘Krissh’, Abhishek Bachchan’s ‘Drona’ and SRK’s forthcoming ‘Ra. 1’ which will see SRK as the desi spiderman, perfectionist Aamir Khan may also be seen now as Hanuman, a modern day super-hero who can fly over mountains and skyscrapers and rescue the good from evil.Produced by Uru Patel, the movie will have the characters of Rama and Ravan played by Hollywood stars Keanu Reeves and Gary Oldman. Shilpa Shetty had originally been chosen for the role of Sita but she backed out later and now the makers are on a lookout for a new international face to play Sita.

However, Aamir is yet to give his nod. His approval will be based on the script and also on his condition that his signature will have to be on every page of the script so that no changes happen in the script during shooting.

The film will be directed by Chuck Russell (of Eraser, The Mask, The Scorpion King, Mandrake fame). If Aamir signs the project, the first schedule of Hanuman is expected to be held in Rajasthan at the end of the year. The rest of the film will be shot at Hollywood studios.
