'Every auteur has own genres to play with. Karan Johar loves romance while David Dhawan, Priyadarshan sway on comedy. How about me? I like to pitch on fear with genre of Horror for my audiences", says Vikram Bhatt. The filmmaker who chilled your spines with edge-seated horror 1920 is on the heels of completing his pre-prod works Shapit. Vikram Bhatt calls it 'a beauteous romance blended with horror' and Aditya Narayana dons the lead role. While he's on deep pursuit of a good looking missy for female lead, here comes a double delight for his fans.

Vikram Bhatt is set for hop-skips from Horror to theme of 'Creature' where he seems to have planned to shell out Rs. 1 billion. Closest sources have revealed he has been in constant meetings with top-charting technicians who have worked with Steven Spielberg. "It's too early for me to speak about and I'll let it know when things are nailed down" utters Vikram Bhatt.

Once, the filmmaker has his heroine zeroed down, shooting for Shapit would hit the floors in the month of January.
