Mishra said that contrary to reports Farhan is not a partof his film Dhruv but he is planning to offer another filmto the Dil Chahta Hai director.

"I am going to do Dhruv but it will not star Farhan. Iam planning another film with Farhan. I have not narrated the story to himyet. But I want to cast him. I feel he is an outstandingactor.

"I haven't seen a performance of such integrity like theone he did in Bhaag Milkha Bhaag. I am so glad that he tookthe plunge in acting," Mishra said in an interview on thesidelines of IFFI.

Mishra, who last directed Inkaar, will soon begin workon Pehle Aap Janaab, which was earlier titled Mehrunissa.When asked why he decided to change the title even before thecommencement of shooting, the filmmaker said, "The earliertitle was sounding like a story of a courtesan and a periodfilm, which it is not. It is a comedy in the best sense of theword and is about love and life. Hence, I decided to change thetitle."

The film stars Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan, RishiKapoor and Mishra's favourite lady Chitrangada Singh. TheHazaaron Khwaishein Aisi director said he is looking forwardto shoot with both Rishi and Big B.

"I feel it is the right script and that is why theydecided to be a part of it. It is about what happens whensomething that you have yearned for in childhood and what youmissed comes back to your life.

"It is a comedy between Rishi Kapoor and Amitabh Bachchan,who are the main protagonists of the film. It is a story aboutthose two characters," Mishra said.
