MUMBAI: Keeping behind the debacle of his ambitious film Ra.One, Shah Rukh Khan has planned to make a big-budget film titled Mahabharata.

The film is based on Karna, one of the most interesting and complex characters in the epic.

Khan is of the view that the new film might be far bigger and better in its scale than Ra.One that released last Diwali. His ultimate goal is to make the mother of all Indian films that could be Bollywood’s first truly global blockbuster.

The actor-producer wants the special effects of this film to be more advanced than James Cameron’s Avatar. Mahabharata would be made on the lines of Lord of the Rings - a trilogy.

Right now, the actor-producer is busy with his SFX team at Red Chillies to put together a very special presentation for next month’s Berlin Film Festival.

It is being said that Khan has already held talks with Hollywood studios in India like 20th Century Fox and Warner Brothers regarding the marketing and distribution of the film.
