But, the question in everyone mind would be will Hrithik accept yet another epic role. Sources though reveal that Hrithik seems to be equally keen in working with Shirish in yet another epic movie and reports have it that the actor and director are meeting regularly and discussing the movie in detail. News has it that Prince of India will be Shirish's next after Joker where Akshay has bagged himself with the coveted superhero role in the latter movie.

Shirish seems to be wanting to revolutionize the Industry with his efforts with use of advanced visual effects in 'Joker'. The director plans to continue the effect and impact of FX in his future film Prince of India as well. Matching up to the Hollywood standards will surely be one of the biggest challenges the director will be facing.
