What Went Wrong With Saif's Aradhana?
Here's the latest update from the world of Bollywood. We bet you wouldn't want to miss this. Read on for details... What Went Wrong With Saif's Aradhana?
Producing a remake is the current fad in Bollywood, but Saif Ali Khan is keeping his hands off the idea. Rumours were that he had planned to revisit his mother, Sharmila Tagore’s best work, Shakti Samantas Aradhana, inspired by the 1946 Hollywood classic, To Each His Own. But the project is not likely to see the light of day.
When contacted, Saif said, “Its not true that Im producing Aradhanas remake. I was thinking of the project but it hasnt gone anywhere.”
Its learnt that he was keen to modernise the story and get wife Kareena Kapoor Khan wanted to step into his mums shoes as Vandana, the single, unwed mother whose life transitions from a young 20-something girl to a greying 55-year-old waiting for an opportunity to tell her son that she is his mother.
Kareena, reportedly, had also made up her mind on who shed cast as Arun and Suraj, both characters immortalised by late Rajesh Khanna, who rose to superstardom with this film. She was keen that Sidharth Malhotra reprise the part. But now, since the project hasnt gone anywhere, well have to wait to hear from the Nawab of Pataudi what he plans to put his money on next!
