It looks like 2018 is going to be a very
special year for the Bachchans.
While Abhishek Bachchan is all set to play
the poet-lyricist Sahir Ludhianvi in a bio-pic
to be produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali,
producer Prerna Aroraa is all set to
cast Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in a role
immortalized by the legendary Nargis.
The film is Raat Aur Din. Directed
by Satyen Bose, this 1969 black-and-white
classic with astonishing songs sung
by Lata Mangeshkar featured Nargis as a
woman with a split personality. For
portraying two different personalities in
one character,Nargis had won the National
award for Best Actress.
For Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, to encore a
role immortalized by Nargis would be the
biggest challenge of her career.
Says Prerna Aroraa, "It's too early to talk
about this project. But yes, I'd like to say it
would be a tremendous challenge
for Aishwarya to play a role for
which Nargisji is remembered to this day.
Let's not forget, Raat Aur Din was Nargisji's
swan song. She never returned to acting
after this film. Her fans still remember her in
this film. It's her most iconic role after
Mother India. And I'm proud to be
associated with this film.
While the Prernaa Arora-produced remake
will be directed by Siddharth Anand, the
iconic Lata Mangeshkar songs from the
original Raat Aur Din, composed
by Shankar-Jaikishan will also be used in
the remake. The songs from the original
Raat Aur Din Diya Jale',
Awara Ae Mere Dil', Dil Ki Girah Kholdo',
Na Chedo Kal Ke Afsane' and Jeena Humko
Raas Na Aaya' are considered among the
best songs of composer Shankar-Jaikishan's
career.

Sounds like a good actress will be needed to do justice to an iconic role. That ain't Aish
