According to a report published in the
Mumbai Mirror, Ketan Anand, the son of
legendary filmmaker Chetan Anand, is all set
to bring his father's musical Heer Ranjha
back to screens in a new avatar. The
original didn't have dialogue and everything
was said in couplets and Ketan is keen to
explore that option.
"It's a revised version, my brother and I
have been working on the script for the last
six months. The original was inspired by a
poem written by Kaifi Azmi which gave my
father the idea of making a film with
dialogues spoken in verse. We will
incorporate that vision and our film too will
be both prose and poetry, he revealed.

Another desi Romeo Juliet possible reincarnation story ? 🤔
They do realize that Harsh movie and Rabtaa flopped badly. Also, who in the world will they cast as here to mouth these poetry lines ? Who will understand ? This is the age of rap in Hindi songs and they want to bring poetry as dialog ? Good luck !!

Every fantasy movie will not a BB2 be.

Heer Ranjha is not a reincarnation story, its a Punjabi folklore tragic love story, its Romeo Juliet with a Punjabi village background
Both died in the end as in all tragic love stories
and its not a fantasy movie either

But I agree, in the age of rap, characters speaking in poetry will be rejected probably

The original Heer Ranjha by Chetan Anand was quite a torture, with Raj Kumar and Priya in the lead roles, they looked too old for the roles of young lovers 😆

Only one song was very popular:

Hate period movies.

And even if they want to make period movies, do something new. The same old boring tragic love stories. These people have no vision outside of love stories.

One annoying Bhansali is enough for all of BW. Please spare us!

Film with dialogues spoken in verse ?
Not sure how much that will appeal to the audience now
Very few films based on folklore work now
People appear to not be much interested in this category any more
