As everyone knows, Dhobi Ghaat is Kiran Rao's debut directorial venture. According to industry sources, Aamir Khan is taking active interest in the project and was present on the sets to oversee that the initial shooting schedule goes smoothly.
However, the first few schedules of the film were postponed. Reason? If our sources are to be believed, Aamir Khan, the perfectionist, was not satisfied with the preparatory work of the technicians, who, he felt needed more time to get the things and their work in right order. So, he cancelled the shoot and ordered pack up and gave the techies fifteen days to prepare and then report back for the shooting.
So with Aamir showing interest, we certainly have another good project in the form of Dhobi Ghaat coming up. And the movie is getting more exciting, what with the news in that Pratiek Babbar, the promising actor son of the great Smita Patil and Raj Babbar has been roped in to play an important role in the film.
