Touted to be a science fiction thriller, the movie generated immense hype even before the official announcement was made. [Shahrukh Khan]
If you might remember, the movie was once set to be a Kamal Shankar combo and due to reasons unknown the movie was called off. And now, if sources are to be believed, it's certain that King Khan has also decided to call it quits. Shahrukh had many projects on hand but scrapped it all just to allot time for this magnum opus. The first schedule of the movie was supposed to start by early 2008 but due to differences of opinion in the creative department, looks like Shahrukh and Shankar have decided to separate in the best interest of the film. Shankar who was planning day in and day out for this project will be quite disappointed. Will the ace director start a fresh project or will he opt for some other hero to don Robot, is yet to be seen. As for Shahrukh, he is relaxing after wrapping up the hectic schedule of Om Shanthi Om.
