Ranbir Kapoor, Imran Khan signs a film together

Actors Ranbir Kapoor and Imran Khan had everybody in splits when they co-hosted this year’s Filmfare awards. While many industrywallas were eager to sign the two together, it is director Tarun Mansukhani who has finally managed to get both to co-star in his next film.

The sequel to Dostana starring John Abraham and Abhishek Bachchan is high on Tarun’s priority list, but he’s also working on another project, which will feature real-life best buddies, Imran and Ranbir. This project might even be made before Dostana 2, depending on the progress of the two scripts.

A source said, “Imran and Ranbir showed interest in doing the sequel to Dostana. After they did the pseudo gay act on stage at the Filmfare Awards, everyone presumed that the young actors will replace Abhishek and John in Dostana 2. But Karan Johar and Tarun are adamant that Dostana 2 will feature the two male lead actors who starred in the original.”

Tarun wishes to remain non-committal about his plans, but doesn’t deny either that a Ranbir-Imran project is on the anvil.
