    Milan Luthria says his next film with Saif is a Manmohan Desai kind of film

    The Dirty Picture fame Milan Luthria, who is doing his next film with Bollywood star Saif Ali Khan, has denied the rumours that the actor is playing a superhero in the film. He said that though the film has a fantasy element to it, it will not be appropriate to label it a superhero flick as it has everything from romance and action to emotion so it should not be put in a particular genre. "No, it's not a superhero film. Saif is not playing a superhero in my film. People have misinterpreted me and come to the conclusion that I am making a same film like everyone else. All I can say is that it's an entertaining film with a twist," Luthria said. He added, "The film has all the elements of fantasy. When you have a very good script, it becomes difficult to put it into a particular slot or genre. I have a fantasy element in my film and that's my trump card. In many ways, I can say that it's a very Manmohan Desai kind of a film," he added. Describing Saifs role in the Bhushan Kumar production venture, which is yet-to-be-titled, the filmmaker said, Saif will be seen playing a role that he has never tried before", and added that even he is "trying something that I have not attempted before." The director, who had worked with Saif in his 1999 directorial debut Kachche Dhaage, said "Saif has been proving himself in new ways, be it Dil Chahta Hai, Race, Love Aaj Kal or Ek Hasina Thi or anything else. He has proved his versatility. There is a lot of excitement with this film. When we first worked together, that time he was a little raw and I was new. Now we are meeting when we both are at the top".
