Shahid to work with Ramesh

The Bollywood film producer Ramesh Taurani of Tips, who launched Bollywood star Shahid Kapoor in the year 2003 romantic movie Ishq Vishk, will now work with Shahid again after their last project Fida, in 2004.

According to the sources, after the failure of Anjaana Anjaani, Siddharth Anand was supposed to direct Two States with Saif Ali Khan and Priyanka Chopra for director Sajid Nadiadwala. However, since he is no longer part of the project, he looked forward to meet Shahid Kapoor and discussed a story idea to the actor. Shahid Kapoor without giving any second thought took to the concept and now Tips has joined on-board to produce the hypothesized action flick, which will be a new experience for the actor.
