While last week, we had informed you that the Senior Bachchans are expected to feature in Shoojit Sircar’s ‘Garden House’, the ‘Vicky Donor’ famed director already has yet another project up his sleeve.

Titled ‘Jaffna’, the film will be a political thriller and have John Abraham in the lead.

Interestingly, the film will serve as a launch-pad for the well-known supermodel Sheetal Mallar.

At a time when debutants are usually young, in the case of Sheetal looks like the rule has been reversed. The 38-yr old beauty is said to have been quite adamant in refusing the movie’s offer; for, according to sources, Sheetal neither had much interest in acting nor wanted to enter movies.

On the other hand, Sircar was keen to rope in Sheetal.

Said the director to sources, "I find Sheetal very unusual. I've been wooing her for a part in Jaffna that I feel only she can do.

To have convinced her is a big triumph for me." Apparently, the director had told her that the role which is meant for her can't be played by anyone else.

Sources revealed further that in ‘Jaffna’ Sheetal’s role will be far different than any other actresses have done before and it won’t be the usual run-of-the-mill character.

Incidentally, both John and Sheetal wouldn’t be playing the typical Romeo and Juliet in the film.
