Alia or Parineeti for Sadma remake

Ever since the remake of Sridevi-Kamal Haasan starrer Sadma (1983) was announced, buzz around its star cast has been doing the rounds. Ad-filmmaker Lloyd Baptista, who is making his directorial debut with the project, had earlier confessed that Kareena Kapoor was approached to reprise Sridevi's role in the film, but she couldn't do it as she was busy with Ki & Ka at the time. Now, SpotboyE.com has learnt that Alia Bhatt and Parineeti Chopra have been approached for the film. The screen tests are scheduled some time soon.




says a source, "Lloyd is in India for a few days to finalise the cast of Sadma remake and the biopic on entrepreneur Kalpana Saroj. He will do the screen test of both Alia and Parineeti before taking a call."

It remains to be seen which actress finally makes it.

Sadma, directed by Balu Mahendra featured Sridevi and Kamal Haasan in lead roles. The film tells the tale of Nehalata (Sridevi), a young woman who regresses to childhood after suffering a head injury in a car crash. Lost, she ends up trapped in a brothel before being rescued by Somu (Kamal Haasan), a lonely school teacher who falls in love with her.
