Here's yet another case of Bollywood camaraderie. Shiney Ahuja, accused in the infamous rape episode, is back in Bollywood soon after being released on bail.

His mentor Sudhir Mishra, who brought him fame with Hazaron Khwahishen Aisi, and subsequently Khoya Khoya Chand, has not only spoken to him after his release, buzz is that he is also planning to cast him in his next film Hitman.

In the past, actors such as Sanjay Dutt and Salman Khan have been at crossroads with the law, but that did not impact their brand equity as stars.

Ahuja has been ordered by the Bombay High Court to relocate to Delhi until his trial begins. Sudhir is currently in Delhi, finishing a thriller. He will begin work on Hitman soon after this venture gets completed.

The two had discussed the film before the actor was arrested. The duo had also planned to work on Devdas but the project was eventually shelved.
