With many remakes and classic adaptations coming forth, especially Varun Dhawna bagging the leads in them, Madhuri Dixit feels Varun and Alia Bhatt can easily play Prem and Nisha from Hum Aapke Hai Koun (orginally played by her and Salman Khan).
Madhuri Dixit alongside the upcoming film Kalank’s remaining cast, has been busy promoting the forth coming period drama. During an interview with DNA when asked, her casting choice for a hypothetical Hum Aapke Hai Koun remake, she said if the film is well written and well directed anyone will be able to do it.
But the actress also agreed when asked if Varun and Alia can take the lead, she said, “Alia and Varun can easily play those characters. Alia is a very good actress. She can get into any role and make it her own. So yeah, definitely. They’ll be good.”
Later when Alia was told about her possibility of being the future Nisha she was shocked and honoured with the idea. “Wow! That’s a first! Call up Sooraj Barjatya Sir, somebody. Unhi ko banaana chahiye…I don’t think anybody can be Nisha and Prem – that was too iconic a film. I feel it’s too gracious and generous of ma’am to say this.”
The makers of Kalank are gearing up to release Madhuri Dixit starrer, ‘Tabaah Ho Gaye’ after receiving terrific response for the film’s title track and trailer. Produced by Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions, set in the ‘40s, Kalank will release on April 17.
