Khushbu, Big B movie heading in the right direction?

Two years back, director Revathy S Varma (who made June R with Jyothika and Suriya) had cast Amitabh Bachchan to play the lead in her Bollywood film Mad Dad. She had also roped in actress Khushbu, who had played an important role in June R, to play the wife of giant B. However, the project was stalled because of the Bollywood superstar’s illness.While the director is currently making the film in Malayalam with actor Lal, TV host Nazriya Nazim and Meghna Raj, we hear that she may be looking to resuscitate the project in Hindi in addition.

The filmmaker, who's currently busy with the post production work for the Malayalam film, confirmed that she plans to remake the film in Hindi. “I’m not acutely aware of the present availability status of the actors as I’ve been focusing on the Malayalam film. But, some interested Bollywood producers have also suggested that shall we make the film with Sanjay Dutt, in case Amitabh Bachchan is unavailable,” she said.

When we contacted actress Khusbhu, she said, “Yes, I were approached and agreed to do the film two years back. But I don’t know the status of the project now.”
