MUMBAI: Nilesh Rane, son of Maharashtra revenue Minister Narayan Rane, has signed Soham Shah for a mega budget film Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.

The film will be in 3D, with special effects done by a Hollywood crew that worked on Gladiator. 

According to the director, the film will be a visual treat... in the genre of 300, Robin Hood and The Prince of Persia.

The filmmaker has started work on his dream project and the final draft is expected to be ready in two months time.

Shah is networking with Bollywood superstars because he wants two big names to play Shivaji and the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb. The director is eyeing Sanjay Dutt to play the role of Shivaji, though nothing is concrete as yet.

Shah, incidentally, has two thrillers to his account in Kaal and Luck.
