Megastar Amitabh Bachchan is teaming up with Aditya Chopra again for a film.
"I am doing a film with Adi. Adi has not told me yet (the story). I can't talk about it," Bachchan said during an interview today.
However, sources said it wouldn't be "Dhoom 4', contrary to reports.
While Aditya directed Bachchan in "Mohabbatein", the actor has done a number of films for Yash Raj banner such as "Kabhie Kabhie", "Kaala Patthar", "Bunty Aur Babli", "Veer-Zaara" and "Jhoom Barabar Jhoom".
Vijay Krishna Acharya, who will direct the new film, said, "We are doing a film with Mr Bachchan. We have been in talks for a very long time. We are yet to finalise details."
The 70-year-old star is also reteaming with Shoojit Sircar, Ram Gopal Varma, Bejoy Nambiar and Gaurang Doshi.
"Bejoy has not come to me with a story yet. I think Bejoy wants to make a short film of 15-20 minutes. The film "Pink" is ready and complete. It is produced by Shoojit Sircar and directed Tony Das Gupta. It is on women empowerment. 'Pink' is representative of girl," Bachchan said.
"There is a film with Gaurang Doshi, it's "Aankhen 2".... the same role I am taking forward, then a film with Ram Gopal Varma," he said.
Bachchan will be seen next in "Te3n" alongside Vidya Balan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui.
