Salman to produce yet another film for Sooraj

Sooraj Pancholi, who made his big Bollywood debut with Hero last year, will soon be teaming up with his mentor Salman Khan once again.

Apparently, Khan wants to sign Sooraj for his home production, which will be directed by Mahesh Manjrekar.

Manjrekar has been planning a film for Salman Khan Productions for the longest time.

Says a source, "After Hero did not open floodgates, Sooraj’s father Aditya Pancholi, who is close to Salman, requested another film for Sooraj.

"Salman has asked Mahesh Manjrekar to write and direct a script featuring Sooraj in the lead."

Meanwhile, choreographer-turned-filmmaker Remo D’Souza has confirmed casting Sooraj with Ajay Devgn in an action film.
