UTV asks Madhur Bhandarkar to delete love scenes from the script of Heroine, if Aishwarya is to replace Kareena The new chapter in the hunt for a heroine to play lead in Madhur Bhandarkar's Heroine has just launched. Bhandarkar can deny is till kingdom comes, but sources confirm that the coveted role has been has been passed on to Aishwarya Rai Bachchan through the film's co-producer UTV. UTV has approached Rai Bachchan to take over the part that was to be played by Kareena Kapoor, but one on condition -- the director will have to say bye bye to the torrid love making scenes. Says a source close to the project, "When Madhur says he hasn't approached Aishwarya for the role, he is technically correct. He didn't directly approach her. UTV did. But Madhur will have a meeting with Aishwarya only after he alters the script." Kareena is believed to have had two problems with the role, forcing her to opt our -- the passionate scenes for one, and the fact that the script resembled the relationship she shares with actor-boyfriend Saif Ali Khan and his children from ex-wife Amrita Singh. UTV is said to have felt Rai Bachchan was perfect for the part of a cinematic diva. Now, Bhandarkar will have to wait to work with Kareena again. He was keen that she do Page 3, but Kareena said she couldn't identify with the journalist's part. Ironically, she had to ditch Heroine because she identified with the part a wee bit much. This is a new article about Heroine. I know some others have posted on this subject before, but leave this as a stand-alone topic please! This article confirms that Aish will land the role only after Madhur alters the script. I feel bad for Kareena, but Aish is on fire after Guzaarish and I love UTV! Aish was supposed to be in Madhur's Corporate years ago, but it didn't work out. Why isn't Madhur excited to work with Aish? I am sure Aish can be brilliant in a Madhur movie. If she can work with directors like Bhansali, Ratnam, Gowariker, and so many others (like Benegal, Bhadwarj in their next), then this will be another strong role in her filmography. I think Heroine will be more saleable and a hot proposition next year if Aish takes the role. All the best to Aish and Madhur! 👏👏👏 Source: http://www.mid-day.com/entertainment/2010/nov/211110-aishwarya-rai-love-making-scene-heroine.htm |
