Hema Malini's shoes too big for Vidya
The actress refused Satte Pe Satta remake since she feels it's too iconic a film.
Vidya Balan refused to step into Hema Malini's shoes in the remake of the 1982 blockbuster Satte Pe Satta. She will definitely not be the one to yet again reform the seven untamed brothers living on a ranch.
"Vidya didn't want to do this film simply because she feels that Satte Pe Satta should not be tampered with.
That film is too iconic to be copied or revised," explains a source about the actress's reason for turning down Sanjay Dutt's offer.
While Dutt will essay the role that Amitabh Bachchan played in the original film, he is having difficulty casting the female lead.
Balan has point-blank refused to take on this challenging project, which will be directed by Soham Shah.
When the filmmakers spoke to Vidya's manager, she did not make them wait too long for a reply.
We last heard that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan might do the film. Let's wait and watch.
Both, Balan and Bachchan, remained unavailable for comment.
