Rahul forayed into production last year with a Bhojpuri film 'Elaan', made under the banner of Rahul Roy Productions, featuring Bhojpuri megastar Manoj Tewari in the lead role and taking on the issue of corruption.

"I had produced a Bhojpuri film last year in November and it did quite well. So then I decided to produce a Hindi film. It is not easy as the Hindi film industry is different and much bigger. I am almost done with the script, it is a romantic thriller," Roy told PTI.

And Rahul is ready to act in the film, as well as be the producer-director.

"I am keen to go back to Hindi films, both as an actor and hopefully as a director. I might end up directing this film. Also, I might act in the film... I haven't thought about acting yet... But direction is likely to happen," Roy said.

The untitled venture will be a two-hero film. "We would have two actors and one heroine. One actor will be from south and the other actor and the lead actress from Bollywood," Rahul said.

"When I was writing the script, I did have stars in my mind, but can't reveal their names, it is too early," he said.

The film is likely to go on floors later this year.
