We're loving Bollywood at the moment, and here's some more news for you this Thursday morning. We have learned that Indian star Irrfan Khan is set to play Indian's first prime minister in a big-budget Hollywood film to be directed by Brit Joe Wright (ATONEMENT).

Khan would play Jawaharlal Nehru in the film, called INDIAN SUMMER, which also stars Cate Blanchett. She plays Edwina Mountbatten in the film with Hugh Grant playing Lord Mountbatten.

The film is set to be released in 2011.

Indian star Boman Irani is set to play a Hugh Hefner type role in a new Bollywood movie. He will apparently play Harry Holkar in FRUIT AND NUT, who leads a very similar lifestyle to the Playboy magazine founder.

"There are different shades to the character but it is one of the funniest characters I have ever played. It's weirdly funny." Irani said.

A movie based around the life of Hefner himself is also planned. The proposed Hollywood film is set to be directed by RUSH HOUR helmer Brett Ratner.
