National Award winning actor Irrfan Khan will be seen romancing actress Kangana Ranaut in director Sai Kabir's upcoming film Divine Lovers. Kabir has earned the fame by directing Kangana's Revolver Rani, which is doing good business at the box-office.
"Yes I'm doing a film called Divine Lovers with Kangana and Irrfan in the lead. It would be a complete contrast to Revolver Rani. It won't be loud, aggressive, violent and splashy like RR. But again Divine Lovers would be about the Great Indian Dream," said Sai Kabir.
Divine Lovers would be set in Mumbai and Aligarh. "It'd be set in the lower middle class and it would be also about the moral corruption of the middleclass," he added, saying that the sequel to Revolver Rani is also in the pipeline.
"I want to build my hero Alka Singh as a franchise. She'll be my toy to tell many stories. I want her to do many things in the future including fight America and revive the Soviet Union," said the young director.
Kabir added that he is also directing a short film this monsoon.
"Again it's about the Great Indian Dream. This obsession with the middle class comes from the fact that I was an assistant to Saeed Mirza and Kundan Shah for nine years. I am highly influenced by them. But I feel my cinema needs to make money, so I can continue making the films that I want to," he said.
