I am not working with Shahid: Rohit Shetty

Mumbai: Filmmaker Rohit Shetty has denied reports that he is collaborating with actor Shahid Kapoor for a project.

Their were stories that the 41-year-old "Chennai Express" helmer and "Haider" star will team up soon. "No, I am not working with Shahid. I don't know where these reports are coming from. We have just met once. And there is no project we are working on together right now," Rohit told PTI.

The director, who was busy with 'Dilwale' throughout 2015, will start his next project, the remake of 1989 superhit film 'Ram Lakhan' in the coming year. "I will start working on the script of 'Ram Lakhan' in January. Then we will see how it goes." Rohit has been a frequent collaborator with Ajay Devgn.

From 'Golmaal' series to 'Singham' their combo has worked wonders at the box office, but his last two outings have been with Shah Rukh Khan.

However, he soon plans to reunite with Ajay, who is currently filming his first directorial venture 'Shivaay'. "Ajay is currently busy with 'Shivaay' and I will be doing 'Ram Lakhan' so I hope to work with him after both of us are done with our respective project," he said.
