                           Golden Age will mark Shekhar Kapoor's return to big 
screen         Production over, AR Rahman and Scottish composer Craig Armstrong 
are working on the film's score         Alaka Sahani          Mumbai, March 28: 
OCTOBER will see the return of Shekhar Kapoor on big screen—across the 
globe—-with Golden Age. "It will be released on October 12. The production of 
the film (his second of the Elizabeth trilogy) is complete, barring music," 
says Kapoor, who is among India's popular faces in international films.   
Maverick AR Rahman and Scottish composer Craig Armstrong are working on the 
film's score at the latter's studio in Glasgow. The teaming of the two 
composers is expected to show fascinating results considering their different 
backgrounds, thinks the director, a speaker at FICCI-Frame 2007. Kapoor 
recently mentioned in his blog that he has been encouraging Armstrong to lead, 
since the film is a pre-dominantly western production. "But I am looking
 to Rahman to inject some bold, out-there melodies and sounds into the score," 
he says.                The sneak preview of the movie starring Cate Blanchett 
was held in Los Angeles recently. With Kapoor terming the response as 
"exciting", the movie seems worth waiting for. Blanchett is once again playing 
the role of Queen Elizabeth, which had earned her an Academy award nomination 
in 1999. Golden Age takes the story forward by exploring the relationship 
between Elizabeth I and adventurer Sir Walter Raleigh (Clive Owen).   In the 
final installment, Kapoor wants to cast Blanchett again. "But I have to wait 
for Cate to grow 10 years older to make it," says Kapoor, looking charming in 
brown kurta and maroon jacket.   In spite of handling major international 
projects, the Mr India-maker's heart still beats for Bollywood. He wants to 
make Paani—the film that has lived in his consciousness for almost seven years 
now. "I just need money to make it."   Between making his films,
 Kapoor has been creating comic characters and putting their stories in books.d 
Three of his books Snakewoman, Devi and Sadhu—which hit Indian stands only this 
month—-have already been out in the US, generating a huge response. A candid 
Kapoor admits to the Bollywood and Indian myth influences in his books. 
"Snakewoman is our Nagina. Comic books have allowed me to tell more stories as 
doing so through films is time consuming." But daughter Kaveree is yet to get a 
taste of his comic work. "She will someday. Right now, I want to be known to 
her only as daddy," says Kapoor.   For Kapoor fans, there is more in store. The 
animation film Secrets of Seven Sounds, of which he is the co-writer with 
Deepak Chopra and also executive producer, is going to be released world-wide 
in December. "The movie, inspired by Ramayana, is at an advance stage of 
production," reveals producer Biren Ghosh.
