Vishal Bhardwaj next directorial venture will be based on former Al-Qaida chief Osama Bin Laden and will be titled 'Abbottabad'. Abbottabad is a place in Pakistan where Osama Bin Laden was allegedly given a safe shelter by the Pakistani authorities.
The movie will be an adaptation of 'The Exile: The Stunning Inside Story of Osama bin Laden and Al Qaeda in Flight' written by Catherine Scott-Clark and Adrian Levy. It is an insider's account of Al-Qaida after 9/11 attacks on the United States. No further details about the project, including the cast have been revealed yet.
Vishal has earlier adapted Shakespearean tragedies - 'Macbeth' ('Maqbool'), 'Othello' ('Omkara') and 'Hamlet' ('Haider').
