Director Vishal Bharadwaj, whose The Blue Umbrella is releasing on August 10, has decided to put his untitled international war epic on hold as it is taking too much time. He has now decided to make a film that will have no songs.

 "It will be a film without songs, a docudrama kind of subject," Vishal said adding, "I’ll worry about the impact when it is released. Right now, I just want to do the film that has come to my mind."

"As for the World War II film, yes it’s very much on. But the film requires a huge canvas, huge budget and an international cast. The casting is taking a lot of time, much longer than we thought. I’m still negotiating with Hollywood actors," he explains.
