Will Smith could do Bollywood film


Hollywood star Will Smith says he could make a Bollywood-style film with "Slumdog Millionaire" director Danny Boyle, according to a report Friday.

Speaking at the premiere of his new thriller "Seven Pounds", he said he had been "looking at a few things" with the British director, whose film has won four Golden Globe awards and 11 Bafta nominations.

Smith visited Boyle twice while he was filming "Slumdog Millionaire" in India last year, the British director said recently.

Now it appears the project might come to fruition, the Daily Telegraph reported Friday.

"I am looking at a few things, so hopefully we will make something happen. I spoke to Danny a couple of weeks ago, so I suppose we will have to see if anything comes out of it," Smith said.

Boyle was quoted as saying this week that he wants to return to Mumbai to make another film.

“I'd love to do a thriller there next - the energy is extraordinary,” he told the paper.
