Filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj’s last venture, ‘Rangoon‘ starring Kangana Ranaut, Saif Ali Khan and Shahid Kapoor proved to be a huge debacle at the box office, but this sure hasn’t saddened the director, who is already planning his next movie.

This time around, the director wants to go back to his literary ways. After giving hits in the names of ‘Maqbool’, ‘Omkara’ and ‘Haider’, which are all adaptations of Shakespearean dramas ‘Macbeth, ‘Othello’, and ‘Hamlet’ respectively, Vishal is now thinking of making his next as another adaptation of the popular author. But this time it will be different as he will be apparently adapting a comedy. (Also Read: ‘Rangoon’ first week collection: The movie fails badly at the box office)

According to recent reports, Vishal will be working on ‘Twelfth Night’, a 17th-century comedy drama by Shakespeare for his next.

A source said, “The National Award winning director has his eyes on ‘Twelfth Night’, a comedy written by Shakespeare in the 17th century. The play is still a favourite amongst literature lovers. The story is still under process and Vishal will surely add some Bollywood flavour to it.”

We just cannot wait for Vishal to finally announce the same.

While his last historical drama hasn’t been well received by audience, we just hope that him getting back to what he does best, works wonders for him.
