Following the runaway success of “The Dirty Picture”, B-Town
is abuzz with rumours of Ekta Kapoor making a sequel titled, “(pan)choli ke peeche kya hai?”. She hopes to capture the limited imagination
of the audience by making a ‘no-nudity-barred’ sequel, on the life and times of
late actress Jiah Khan.
Ekta Kapoor who is known for her women oriented flicks (her
body of work includes psychological horrors like Ragini MMS, Krishna Cottage
and the recent autobiographical flick- Ek Thi Daayan). Sources close to Ekta
say that ever since mama bear Shobha and just-a-bear Ekta heard news of young
actress Jiah Khan’s suicide they have struck a deal to make a movie of her
life. The title is a jab at actor Suraj Pancholi whose affair with Jiah
reportedly led the young actress to a premature death.
Ekta is currently negotiating with Vidya Balan to shed all
her weight and play the protagonist in the film. Suraj Pancholi will naturally be played by
Tusshar Kapoor. Ever since his successful stint in the Golmaal series, Ekta
deemed there was no one better than Tusshar to play the role of a mute person
while looking silly and suspiciously guilty through the film.
This recent turn of activity has left director Ram Gopal
Varma in a fit of rage. There’s news from the RGV camp that Varma took time off
his tweeting to commence talks with Amitabh Bachchan to direct a movie based on
Jiah Khan’s life, tentatively titled “Nishabd Forever”. He tweeted late last night saying “It’s
terribly philistine of certain studio heads to sensationalise terrible
tragedies even before the mourning period is over”.
His last status update was “Currently working on the sequel
of Bhooth”.
This is great work Krithika! Couldn't stop laughing the whole time that I was reading it. :)
