Abhishek Bachchan is so inspired by director and childhood friend Apoorva Lakhia's latest film, that he has signed on. The yet-untitled film will go on the floors by the end of the year.
Apoorva had begun his directorial career with Abhishek in the film, Mumbai Se Aaya Mera Dost, co-starring Lara Dutta. Unfortunately, it flopped.
Apoorva moved on to direct Amitabh Bachchan in Ajnabee. But that film did not click either.
Apoorva finally got lucky with Shootout At Lokhandwala, starring Vivek Oberoi, Sanjay Dutt, Suniel Shetty and Arbaaz Khan, with Amitabh and Abhishek putting in guest appearances.
At present, Apoorva is busy with Mission Istanbul, starring Vivek and Zayed Khan.
After that, the director will be back with the Bachchans.
