Aamir to produce Imran's directorial debut?

With the curtain falling on Imran Khan's acting career -- recent films with him as leading man have bitten the dust, Katti Batti being the final clincher -- it is time for this talented Khan to take his career in another direction, pun intended.

Imran, a true chip off the Mansoor Khan and Aamir Khan block, will soon direct a film.

Imran, who has been on extended paternity leave since his daughter was born two years ago, has zeroed in on the subject he wants to direct.

"Imran will direct his own script," a source reveals. "Aamir will produce Imran's film."
