Ranbir In Mani Ratnam's ‘Azan’

Ranbir Kapoor After the huge success of 'Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani', Bollywood chocolate boy Ranbir Kapoor is being considered by ace film producers.

Mani Ratnam is one of those considering the actor for his upcoming movie, as he is so impressed by Ranbir's acting talent.

Mani, who is presently busy with 'Raavana', is planning his next venture tentatively titled Azan, which will hit theatres by August 2010.

Azan is a pro-Muslim movie, which is said to be in the writing process.

Nothing is known about the female lead that will be seen romancing opposite Ranbir.

A source said, "After the release of Raavana in May 2010, Mani will start working for Azan. Unlike the films releasing in Bollywood of late, which focuses on either Jehad or Islam, this is a pro- Muslim film which will portray Muslims in a positive light."

"The title of the film is the name of the lead character as he will be born during Azan (The Muslim summons to prayer, called by the muezzin from a minaret of a mosque five times a day)," the source added.
