Rakeysh to cast Bachchans for his forthcoming Bhairavi 
By IndiaFM News Bureau, February 3, 2006 - 02:04 IST
Rang De Basanti set him on the top of the success. Undoubtedly director Rakeysh Mehra is on high these days. The ambitious director is ready for his next venture called Bhairavi. The movie is set in the world of classical Indian music and also deals with the themes of familial strife and competitive creativity. Rakeysh wants to rope Amitabh Bachchan along with wife Jaya and son Abhishek Bachchan for Bhairavi.
He even narrated the script to Amitabh and Abhishek, who agreed to work on the same. As far as Jaya Bachchan is concerned, Mehra says, “She has to! I'll go on a hunger strike until she agrees. Bhairavi must be made, probably this very year.” Though Jaya is extremely choosy about films, Mehra wants her to do the film as he wants to show the real-life roles of husband, wife and son.
Meanwhile Rakeysh is planning to work on his autobiographical script called Delhi-6 before he starts with Bhairavi.
