Mumbai: Imran Khan has been roped in for Vishal Bhardwaj`s ‘Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola’ and the actor is working on his looks and hopes to live up to the filmmaker`s exacting standards.

"When such an established director approaches you it always feels good. Vishal is one of the finest directors working today. When he approached me, it was a great honour," said Imran whose ‘Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu’ is releasing Friday. "He (Bhardwaj) has his own standard. I always question myself whether I will be able to live up to that standard. So I am glad about it," he added. Talking about his new look in the film, Imran said: "I have pierced my ears and am growing my beard... We have not even started the shooting." "Matru ki Bijlee ka Mandola" is a romantic comedy and it also stars Anushka Sharma. The 29-year-old said that he will "start shooting for Vishal`s film from Valentine`s Day". IANS
