Abhishek Bachchan's intense portrayal of a cop in ZAMEEN seems to have impressed the film's director Rohit Shetty so much so that there is talk that Bachchan junior may be signed up for Shetty's next project. Encouraged by the fairly good response to his directorial debut, Rohit Shetty has decided to embark on not one, but two new Bollywood projects. The first project will be an action thriller based on script by Sridhar and Suparn Verma. It is learnt that Shetty is keen on having Abhishek in this venture, although nothing is confirmed as yet.

This yet-to-be-titled flick will go on the floors in March 2004 and will be shot in various locales across Mumbai and Goa over a span of six to seven months. Shetty's second project will again be a thriller, but with a romantic angle. It will be a two-hero project like ZAMEEN. But it is still not clear whether Abhishek will be a part of this project.
