Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap is all geared for an international project next year. Rumour has it that the director will soon direct a Hollywood dark crime thriller.

After the release of his much awaited movie 'Bombay Velvet', the filmmaker will move onto this project in mid- June. With an international unit, the flick will be entirely shot abroad.

On contacting Anurag, he said, "The international project is currently at a preliminary stage. It will not begin till the final print of Bombay Velvet is delivered.That's when we will start pre-production on it. It is a big project and there is a lot of development happening on it internationally. We cannot reveal what is going on. As and when the time is right, we will speak about it. At this moment we don't want to jump the gun."

Currently working on Ranbir Kapoor and Anushka Sharma starrer 'Bombay Velvet', he said, "At the moment they are working on the visual effects of Bombay Velvet. About 40-45 per cent of it is complete, but it is going slow as Bombay of the ’60s is being completely recreated through VFX. They should be done by December and the background music, which is being created simultaneously, should be completed by January 2015. After this Anurag will work on the final editing, then will start promoting the film and gearing up for a big May release."
