Farah Khan told IANS, "I have written a script and this time its a small script, and it`s not star-driven. It`s a two girls project so still waiting for it to happen because I have not put a big star in it."

"It was easier for me to get a 100-crore project green-lit but a 20-crore project is taking time because it doesn`t have a star," she added.

Farah is known for her big budget star-driven films including ‘Main Hoon Na’, ‘Om Shanti Om’, ‘Tees Maar Khan’ and ‘Happy New Year’.

When asked will it be with newcomers, she said: "No it`s not with newcomers then I will not even get 20 cr. It`s a girl-centric film and we do have a working title but we don`t want to give it out right now."

Farah says working with stars is easier because one tend to work a little less on the content because you have a big star in the film.

She says, "The thing is stars make it easier for the project to be green-lit. Otherwise, everyone will question your script 100 times if you have a star saying yes to it give that newspaper cutting and nobody will ask any question that`s the good side and a bad side to it. You tend to work a little less on the content because you have a big star driving on it sometimes."

"That opening is for sure. With other movies you don`t know it can die in a week. If it`s a great movie by word of mouth it grows but that`s 1 in 100. I think that`s why not only here even in Hollywood when an actor becomes a star and has a certain amount of equity, name everyone wants to cash on it," she added.
