Shahrukh Khan finally crosses over to Hollywood



Even as Shah Rukh readies to star in Danny Boyle's 'Bombay Velvet' to be directed by Anurag Kashyap, legendary Hollywood screenplay writer Paul Schrader has hinted at casting SRK in his next film with Mumbai's infamous underworld as the backdrop.

According to reports, Schrader, writer of classics like 'Taxi Driver' and 'American Gigolo', has apparently tied up with Mushtaq Shiekh andAnubhav Sinha to make a USD10 million-budgeted cops and mafia film titled 'Xtrme City'.

The film has been announced by David Weisman's 'Vanishing Cinema LLC' in unison with Shiekh and Sinha.

It is believed that SRK has almost given a nod for the same, thanks to his proximity with Mushtaq Shiekh, who did the screenplays of Khan's films like 'Om Shanti Om', 'Billu' and is also working on SRK's under-production sci-fi thriller 'Ra1'.

To be targeted at both domestic and international markets, 'Xtrme City' will be an action thriller set in the "brutal, impenetrable, criminal orbit of Mumbai", say its makers.

"Spending time in India and working with a Bollywood talent like Shiekh has inspired and excited me to make a film accessible and meaningful to both Indian and American cultures," said Schrader in a statement issued to the media. (ANI)
