Is Ram Gopal Varma making a film with Abhishek Bachchan?

Ok, let's face it. Abhishek Bachchan's career has kind of come to a standstill. It was recently announced that the actor was to star in the upcoming J.P Dutta’s multi-starrer movie 'Paltan', but due to some unknown reasons, the actor has reportedly walked out of the film. Now, word on the street is that Abhishek's father, Amitabh Bachchan has reportedly come to his son's rescue. Apparently, Amitabh met with one of his favourite directors, Ram Gopal Varma, with a proposal to make a hard-hitting solo film with Abhi.

Earlier, the filmmaker was to make a film titled 'Arrest', with Abhishek, but he hasn't moved much in that direction. The slowing down of the pace could be attributed to Ramu’s plans in the South. A source close to the filmmaker stated, “Even while Sarkar 3 didn’t do well, Amitabh really believes in Ramu. He knows that the right kind of film can always change Abhishek’s career, because his son is a very talented actor. He hasn’t gotten the big star status because the films that he has chosen to work in haven’t performed well at the box office. Everyone knows that one good hit and Abhishek will be back. Ramuji is now identifying the right script for Abhishek.”
