Shahid Kapoor's younger brother Ishaan Khattar will make his acting debut with Iranian filmmaker Majid Majidi's next, which will be shot in Mumbai and Jaipur. Supposedly, it's a heart-warming brother-sister story. 

A tabloid confirmed the news that Ishaan will play the brother and that shooting starts in South Mumbai today. Initially rumoured to be titled Floating Gardens, it is now learnt that the film will be called Beyond The Clouds.

"He is a superb actor, was amazing in his look test and suits the character Mr Majidi was looking for. Ishaan will play someone deeply connected to the ground and to the city," confirms Shareen Mantri Kedia who is producing the film. 

Majidi, best known for films like Baran, The Song of Sparrows and the Oscar nominated Children of Heaven, met casting director, Honey Trehan during his August trip. Honey was subsequently given the task of scouting for at least eight-10 actors from across India to play principal characters in the human-drama.

Meanwhile, it had emerged that Deepika Padukone had done a look test for the female lead after pictures of her in a de-glam avatar with Majidi surfaced last year. While an actress is yet to be locked for the part, Ishaan starts shooting today, reports the paper.
