Kabir Khan, who is currently busy promoting 'Tubelight' with Salman Khan has exciting projects in his kitty. The director, who made his mark with his films on war and espionage like 'Kabul Express', 'New York', 'Phantom' and 'Ek Tha Tiger', is all set to return to his element!
As per reports, Kabir has been commissioned by a popular entertainment app to develop a web series for them. A source close to the development revealed, "He has been wanting to make this subject for a long time. He has lived with this project for years as he discovered it during his days as a documentary maker."
The web series, 'The Forgotten Army' is about Subhash Chandra Bose’s Indian National Army and Kabir has approached Saif Ali Khan for the same.
The source further added, "Saif and Kabir share an excellent rapport, and have been wanting to work together. The series is about the soldiers who worked for the INA more than about Bose. Kabir has discussed the idea with Saif and while he has shown interest, he is yet to sign on the dotted line for the project. But if he does, he will play a soldier from Bose’s troupe."
Won't it be interesting to see the 'Phantom' director-actor duo unite once again?
