It is heard that R K Films wants Imtiaz Ali to direct their reappear vehicle with Kareena Kapoor in the lead role. Tremendously overwhelmed with Imtiaz's work in Jab We Met, Kareena’s father Randhir Kapoor approached the young director for their next film.
Jab We Met has been a high point in Kareena's career. Kareena's concert in the film has been highly commended and she also won several best actress awards for the same film. Our well-placed source in the industry said that Imtiaz extracted one of the finest performances from Kareena in Jab We Met. In fact, soon after Jab We Met, the Kapoors started toying with the idea of having Imtiaz on board. For long, the Kapoors have wanted to revitalize the R K banner. They thought of Imtiaz, who had earlier directed Socha Na Tha and who is an original and fine filmmaker.
Kareena also wanted to work with Imtiaz again. Currently, Imtiaz is busy with pre-production work for Saif Ali Khan's home production starring Saif and Deepika Padukone. Rishi Kapoor is also a part of Saif Ali Khan's home production. So obviously, he too will be talking with Imtiaz about directing a film for R K Films. But given Imtiaz's busy schedule for Saif’s film, R K Banner will have to wait for some time if they want him to direct their next. It seems that this will also put to rest all the rumours that all is not well between Kareena and Imtiaz. When Imtiaz insisted that he wanted Deepika for Saif's film, there were stories floating that Kareena was miffed over Imtiaz's insistence because she wanted to star opposite Saif in the film.
