Director Homi Adajania, producer Dinesh Vijan and Fox Star Studios are all set to team up again for the Hindi adaptation of the Hollywood film The Fault In Our Stars, after the trio's latest release, Finding Fanny.
The film is being produced by Dinesh's Maddock Films and co-produced by the studio and this is the second time that the two producers are collaborating. It will also be the fourth time that Dinesh and Homi will work together.
Says Dinesh, "It's a love story based on a beautiful premise. Also, the protagonists have contempt for anything conventional, share a hilarious cynicism and have an exceptionally unique outlook on life. All this reeks of Homi, so it was a no-brainer to offer this to him as a director."
Adds Vijay Singh (CEO, Fox Star Studios), "The film has connected with this generation. It's a big responsibility for us to get it right and make a heartwarming film for Indian audiences."
The Fault In Our Stars is a story about two terminally ill youngsters, who fall deeply in love and embark on an extraordinary journey.
Adds Homi, "It's a story that I feel needs to be told. It's poignant at a time when we are manically running this make-believe race we think is life. We are profound idiots to actually believe we have unlimited time here."
While casting is still on, an announcement is expected soon. The shoot will begin March 2016.
