Filmmaker Sujoy Ghosh is ready with his next babyu Aladin starring Big B as the genie and Rietesh as Aladin and the director claims that it is on par with Hollywood magical movies Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings.

He says, “Our funda was simple, we had to make a movie which is indeed world class. Indian audiences aren’t alien to ‘Harry Potter’ or The Lord of the Rings series. We couldn’t have given them anything less. We knew it would cost a lot of money but somehow we had an inkling that we would be able to raise it.”

The flick also has Sanjay Dutt playing the role of a villain and the music is composed by musical duo Vishal and Shekhar.
