Bipasha’s sexy role inspired by Jolie’s ‘Tomb Raider’ in New Film

Angelina Jolie’s `desi` counterpart Bipasha Basu is all set to scorch the screen and tantalize the cine-goers provocatively in his new film, which is said to be inspired by ‘Tomb Raider’.

And she also has an international co-star for company – Billy Zane of ‘Titanic’ fame. Not only Bips has a challenging role, she is fortunate to be directed by the famous animator David Silverman in the film.

Produced by Smita Thackeray, the romantic thriller will go on floors on July 25. The film also features Rajvirr as the second lead in the film. A source revealed to a news daily, "At the moment, they are doing photo shoots with Bipasha and Rajvirr. Bipasha`s role is along the lines of Angelina Jolie`s ‘Tomb Raider’. Her character is immensely sexy at the same time very mature and intense."

The film will be shot entirely in Kodaikanal. Billy Zane seen as the villain in Titanic and later in the ‘Mummy’ series had a meeting with Thackeray. He will soon be arriving in India for the film. "There were reports that Bipasha and Billy were to do a film a few months back but now that Smita Thackeray has locked in both the actors, she plans to make an official announcement of the film," a source added.

The film, which is a love triangle, is touted to have explicit love scenes and lot of red-hot masala. Let’s see whether `desi` Bips can beat Jolie’s sexy act!
