The Sadmaa remake with Kareena Kapoor and Ranveer Singh as the lead pair wasn't meant to be. Kareena admits, "I was approached for the film but I am not doing that film."

Following Kareena's exit from the film, it now appears that the film might not be remade at all anymore. Says a source, "The makers planned the sequel keeping Kareena in mind. It's her character that drives the film so the female protagonist is very important in the film. Sridevi had nailed her part in the original and the team felt Bebo's the only actress of the current generation who can bring in the depth and drama to the table. So after she informed them that she wasn't doing the film, the makers decided to put the film on hold for the time being."

Tell Kareena about it and she almost confirms that the film is on the back-burner. "I don't know if they are making the film anymore now," admits Bebo.
