The story supposedly is about how creatures from outer space change the life of a simple individual. Shot in 3D, the film is supposed to have an Unidentified Flying Object (UFO) as well as an alien creature.

A source reveals, "The story has a flying saucer landing in the middle of a village. An alien character is also expected to be created. Most of the technicians working on Joker are from the West.

The SFX team is also busy sketching and coming up with alternatives about how the alien could look and be incorporated in the plot."

Kunder is making Joker keeping kids in mind.

"There will be a huge set built to show the NASA (The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, an organization responsible for USA's aeronautics and aerospace research) and the scientists working in it."

The biggest attractions of the film would be the special effects and use of 3D technology to show Akshay's interaction with an alien."

When contacted Shirish confirmed the story.
