With four releases up his sleeves, Saif Ali Khan is definitely one of the busiest actors this year. Apart from the four announced films - 'Rangoon' (released in February), 'Chef', 'Kalakaandi' and 'Baazaar', Saif is in talks with filmmaker Nikkhil Advani for another film based on Batla House encounter.

And now, a recent report suggests that Saif is also in talks with Vikramaditya Motwane for a film. Vikramaditya, over the weekend, was spotted exiting Saif's house and their meeting sparked rumours of the two planning to collaborate. A report in a leading tabloid suggests that as Saif's film 'Kalakaandi' failed to impress the distributors, the actor is steadily in talks with filmmakers over different, content-driven films.

A source close to the tabloid revealed, "Saif is someone who generally sticks to business. So, Motwane's visit set tongues wagging. Over the past couple of months, Saif has been quietly meeting writers and directors, apart from holding regular creative discussions with several studio heads. He is keen to take up content-rich projects."

However, the source further revealed that the project may not see Saif as an actor, but as a producer. "He also wants to focus on production. So, it could be Phantom Films joining hands with the Phantom star to make a film," added the source.

When the tabloid approached Vikramaditya to ask about his meeting with Saif, the Harshvardhan Kapoor starrer 'Bhavesh Joshi' director stayed unavailable for a comment.
