Following his stint in Hollywood, Anil Kapoor’s career seems to be at an all time high. And filmmakers are not wasting any time to approach the actor. Mumbai Mirror has recently learnt that the actor has been offered his first role in a Dharma Production, which will be directed by Rensil D’Silva
A source close to the film revealed, “After the way MI 4 was touted, Anil has been regarded as a big star in the industry. And since his career has taken off as well as it has, he brings a lot of value to a project. That’s why Karan Johar and Rensil D’Silva decided to get Anil on-board.”
According to the source, Anil is yet to sign the film, however, the modalities are currently being worked out. Rensil’s untitled venture reportedly stars Emraan Hashmi in one of the male lead roles. “The rest of the cast including the film’s leading lady is yet to be finalized,” added the source.
When contacted, Rensil said, “Well, I can’t talk about casting right now. I will make an announcement shortly.”
Anil and Karan remained unavailable for comment.

There was a time when an Emraan Hashmi film essentially meant Mahesh Bhatt. Or a dark subject. And of course, a lot of lovemaking. Though the lovemaking hasn’t changed, Emraan Hashmi has surely moved on from Vishesh Films. In fact, after Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji and The Dirty Picture, Mumbai Mirror has found out that Emraan has collaborated with Karan Johar for his next production to be directed by Rensil D’Silva.
A source close to the production house informed Mumbai Mirror, “After Kurbaan, Rensil was supposed to make a film with Salman Khan in the lead role. However, with Salman’s 2012 calendar choc-a-bloc with the many projects he is currently filming, the filmmaker has decided to make another film in the meantime. The ensemble cast for this new project will have Emraan Hashmi in the lead role. The rest of the cast is still being finalised.”
This film will be Emraan’s first with Dharma Productions. “Having delivered a string of hits, it is clear that Emraan has a massive fan following. The producers realise that Emraan is a big star in the industry today. And thus, Karan Johar and Rensil D’Silva have decided to work with him in their next project,” added the source.
Everything else about the film has been kept under wraps. The announcement would be made soon.
