Even before a single frame has been, shot it is already clear that what a huge magnum opus the movie Bombay Velvet is going to be. Already the news has been confirmed that Aamir Khan has signed on for the movie. Shahrukh Khan has been in talks for some time now and it is always certain that he will sign on for this Danny Boyle movie after he missed a trick when he turned down Slumdog Millionaire.

Now if two of the biggest superstars in the industry were not enough to pop out the eyes of the readers now John Abraham has been roped in to play the third and the final lead. Earlier there were rumors that a newcomer will be given a chance to play the third lead but it looks like that Anurag Kashyap who will be directing the movie has gone for a long trusted ally in John to play the part.

To refresh the memories it was not so long back that John and Anurag teamed up for the movie No Smoking that was a huge disaster at the box office. Even after the debacle of the movie, the duo decided that they would certainly get together and work in the future. Both of them had faith in the abilities of each other. Now a few years down the line both have proved their worth in the industry with movies like New York and Dev D.

It is apt that they are getting back together in a movie of this stature. Anurag has even roped in some writers and critics who criticized him in No Smoking to help with the script of this movie.
