Irrfan Khan & Kangna Ranaut to work together?

Irrfan Khan and Kangna Ranaut are reportedly set to work together for the first time in a film on Begum Akhtar.

While the film was announced by Shri Anup Jalota Productions and Ae Mohabbat Productions today, only Irrfan Khan was confirmed. The film will be directed by Ketan Mehta, with music by AR Rahman.

“We are trying to get Kangana Ranaut to play one of the stages of Begum Akhatar in the film,” Jalota told IANS when asked about the female lead for the film.

“We have grown up listening to and idolising Begum Akhtar. I have been wanting to intiate such project and a tie up with Ae Mohabbat Productions and associating with Rita Ganguly who knew her personally, is a real blessing,” he added.

The film is based on today’s Indian classical music.
