Sources say Hrithik Roshan has finally been confirmed for the filmmaker's project that's to be produced by YRF

After much ado, sources say that Shekhar Kapur has finally handpicked Hrithik Roshan to play lead in his most ambitious project till date. Apparently, the actor have been talking about bagging the project, which was first announced 12 years ago, quite openly on the ongoing Marrakech Film Festival in Morocco.

A source says, `Now that Shekhar has finally found a producer in Aditya Chopra, looks as if things at the moment are falling into place. Earlier, the director was often rebuked as to who would need to look a project like Paani!`

The film on the way to apparently have the cheap of $ 30 million is alleged to star an Indian actor and an overseas heroine.

A source from Morocco says, `Hrithik is openly discussing the film with others. He's obviously excited to get the project. Ranbir was also within the buzz as being considered for the role. Guess his packed diary didn't permit him free dates to mention yes to Shekhar.`

The film that was first announced with Vivek Oberoi within the lead essays a time when the arena has gone to war over the scarcity of drinking water. International corporations hold water as leverage to manage the human population.

The film tells the tale of a financially poor man, who stealthily visits the elite parts of the town where he comes across a phenomenal woman and so they fall in love.
