According to sources, Ranveer Singh is in very early talks with Dinesh Vijan for a time-travel film to be directed by Amit Ravindranath Sharma (Badhaai Ho, & Maidaan). 'Ranveer has heard the plot and liked the world that Dinesh Vijan and Amit Ravindranath Sharma are looking to create. It's a one-of-its-kind time travel film, that's deeply rooted against the backdrop of Indian Mythology,' revealed a source close to the development, adding further that Ranveer is excited to explore a new genre in the coming year.
'However, he is yet to sign the dotted lines. The things are in very nascent stages, and the final script is also not in place at the moment. It's an idea, which holds potential, and Ranveer has shown his interest to step into this new world, once it is completely ready to roll. Dinesh Vijan and Amit Sharma are jamming to develop a proper screenplay at the moment on this idea of time travel,' the source added.
The source concluded, 'It's an ambitious big budget film, and the things on the casting front will be clear by the end of 2025. As we speak, the writing work is underway and the team intends to do more meetings with the actor once he is doing shooting for Dhurandhar.' Apart from Don 3, Ranveer is also doing a Zombie Film with director Jai Mehta, which is also in the writing and development stage at the moment.

THIS ‘Bhaag Milkha Bhaag' star charged just Rs 11 as fees; director Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra reveals why
Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra 's 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag', one of the most celebrated biopics made in Bollywood, completed its 12th anniversary this year. The 2013 film, which chronicled the inspiring life of Indian sprinter Milkha Singh , featured Farhan Akhtar in a career-defining role. Made on a budget of Rs 41 crore, the film went on to even win an impressive 55 awards at both national and international award shows. While Akhtar's performance and dedication to his role bowled over fans and critics alike, it was another gesture by one of the film's cast members that won appreciation. At a time when actors are in the news for charging whopping fees exceeding Rs 50 to Rs 100 crore, back in 2013, one star on Mehra's cast did the unthinkable and charged a fee of just Rs 11. Rs 11 Paycheque This star was none other than the lead actress, Sonam Kapoor . The actress, who appeared in a brief but pivotal role as Biro, a character who alters Milkha's emotional journey, charged a nominal fee, surprising even the director. In an earlier interview with Bombay Times, director Mehra revealed the circumstances that led to this remuneration. He said, 'I approached Sonam and told her clearly that she would be in the film for about 15 minutes. I wasn't sure if her character would appear in the trailer or the poster,' he recalled. 'She listened and said, 'The film must be made, and I'll charge you a bomb.' Later, her contract arrived — and the fee was just Rs 11 as shagun. She brought great dignity to the part.' Film's Enduring Relevance Looking back on the film's enduring relevance, he reflected on its historical and emotional resonance. 'Some stories don't fade out; they mature with time. Bhaag Milkha Bhaag is one of them. It's timeless, not topical,' he said. Bhaag Milkha Bhaag also starred Divya Dutta, Pawan Malhotra , and Yograj Singh in key roles.
