Saawariya is based on a book
Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Saawariya is one of the most anticipated and closely guarded releases this year.The film, which is a launch pad for Ranbir Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor, is supposed to be based on Russian writer Fyodor Dostoevsky's book White Nights. A source reveals that Bhansali loved the book when he read it and was inspired by the classical literature. Saawariya's story spans across three generations with Ranbir and Sonam playing the young lovers, while Salman and Rani are in the second generation. White Nights on the other hand is about the story of a girl caught between lovers of two generations. We will have to wait for the film to know the truth behind this one!
