<p>Filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali has expressed his desire to remake the Sanjay Dutt-starrer "Khalnayak", but is yet to buy its rights.<br /><br /></p>.<p>"Khalnayak", a 1993 action thriller, was directed and produced by Subhash Ghai.<br />"There was a talk for sure when he (Sanjay Leela Bhansali) had come for lunch at my home and he wanted the rights of 'Khalnayak'," Ghai told PTI.<br /><br />"I have asked for around Rs 8 to 9 crore. I think he is too tied up with his current film production ('Bajirao Mastani')," he said.<br /><br />Ghai, however, denied reports that filmmaker Karan Johar also wanted to remake "Khalnayak".<br /><br />"No, it is not true. But other producers, yes. I can't reveal names," Ghai said.<br />"Khalnayak" revolved around the escape and attempted capture of a terrorist, Ballu (Dutt), by Inspector Ram (Jackie Shroff) and his girlfriend police officer Ganga (Madhuri Dixit).<br /><br />"Suddenly this ('Khalnayak') has become the hottest product being talked about in market today. And we are getting offers from few more producers," Ghai said.<br /><br />Last year, Ghai sold the remake rights of his another blockbuster film "Ram Lakhan" to filmmaker Karan Johar. The remake will be directed by Rohit Shetty. <br /></p>
