New Delhi, July 17( IANS) Bollywood's prestigious banner Yash Raj Films has denied reports that it has signed Salman Khan for a movie, saying they are 'completely baseless'.

It was reported that writer-turned-director Vijay Krishna Acharya, whose directorial debut 'Tashan' was produced by the banner, is directing his second film for Yash Raj Films and that Salman would star in it.

'We would like to clarify that this is a completely baseless and incorrect story. Vijay is still in the process of writing his next script for Yash Raj Films. No casting has therefore been done nor has anyone been considered for the same,' stated the banner.

'As and when we do finalise the script and the casting is complete, a suitable announcement will be made,' it added.

Salman, who has worked with almost all the filmmakers in the industry, is yet to be seen in a Yash Raj Films production.
