Will Smith wants to make a Bollywood flick. He had earlier promised to star in one. He is determined to fulfill his promise.He is inspired and being advised by Slumdog Millionaire director Danny Boyle, according to reports. Hollywood big-wig Will Smith has been planning his cross-over project that could star Anil Kapoor, Aishwarya Rai and Will himself. He has shown a lot of interest in being a part of a South Asian project since 2006. But his earlier commitments and time crunch made the dream impossible to fulfill. But now is the time that Will has decided to go further on.
Smith had recently asked out Anil Kapoor for his project. Anil has confirmed the reports. Smith sought out Anil to discuss his latest project.
Boyle’s Slumdog Millionaire was shot in Mumbai. It has convinced Smith so much that he is serious about trying his luck in a different genre of pictures. Smith has made several trips in India and now his visits are going to pay him off.
“While we were filming there, Will Smith came over twice. There’s a massive coming together of Bollywood and Hollywood. It’ll only take one person to bring them together and it will be huge,” Boyle said.
“Yes, he came to visit us. He came to my residence. Very nice chap,” Anil Kapoor said. Anil sounds excited enough to be part of a Hollywood-Bollywood joint project which is most certainly a big affair. Annually Bollywood grosses billions overseas. It will be a big affair for both the cultures and film making genres. The I Robots and Pursuit of Happyness star had earlier taken part in Indian events like launching new TV channel Pix and appearing on TV talent show INDIAN IDOL, a visit to the Taj Mahal, to eat an authentic chicken tikka masala, as well as meet Bollywood producers to discuss his Asian film debut.
