'Jodhaa Akbar' pair, Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai will be seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's upcoming flick 'Guzaarish'. The new film is expected to hit the cinemas by the end of 2009. 'Guzaarish' is the remake of Christopher Nolan’s hit movie 'The Prestige'.  The project is a 50-50 joint venture between Bhansali and UTV. Hrithik and Aishwarya Rai were earlier seen in an UTV production ' Jodhaa Akbar'.

 

As per media reports, it was Salman Khan who suggested Bhansali for remaking 'The Prestige'. Salman got annoyed when Bhansali roped in Hrithik instead of him. Salman Khan has also decided not to work with Bhansali again. Apart from acting in Ashutosh Gowariker's 'Jodhaa Akbar', both Hrithik and Aishwarya have worked together in 'Dhoom2'.

 

Hollywood movie 'The Prestige' has been adapted from Christopher Priest's 1995 World Fantasy Award-winning novel of the same name. Featuring Hugh Jackman, Christian Bale and David Bowie, the film deals with the themes of duality, obsession, sacrifice, and secrecy. The plot of the film revolves round the rivalry between two magicians.
