Mumbai: Aamir Khan and company has been zealously guarding the storyline of their upcoming thriller Talaash.

But that hasn't stopped us from laying our hands on a novella titled An Act of Providence, which our sources say could be the main inspiration behind this film.

The novella, penned by Joseph Payne Brennan and Donald M Grant, which was released in 1979 is set in 1975 in Rhode Island.

A source pointed out, "One can't help but notice certain similarities both the respective protagonists Inspector Shekhawat and Lucius Leffing are investigating a crime incident that takes place in and around a water body and both the protagonists are undergoing a personal crisis at the time of investigating their cases."

Director Reema Kagti however refuted our source's claim.
