Says Bachchan, "AB Corp is making a film based on the relationship between Emperor Ashoka and his son Kunal. I am still considering the project which will be directed by Dr Chandraprakash Dwivedi."
Dwivedi who has written and script as well as the screenplay for the untitled film, says, "The story is a legend based on a collection of Buddhist texts called the Avadanas which deals with the purification of the soul and mind.
Dwivedi chanced upon the story when he was working on his TV series Chanakya. "The story fascinated me as it dwelt on the strange yet loving relationship between father and son. Kunal was born a year before the Kalinga war. There is no detailed account of what actually happened.
