Sippy has chosen the right time to hit back
at Ram Gopal Verma when Sholay’s unofficial
remake “Ram Gopal Verma ki Aag” is
being released amidst huge expectation. Even though
RGV has said that his movie is not a remake, but
an inspiration, yet this news will surely come
in as a big shocker to the director.
But the Rs. 400 crore-deal is not just for Sholay
remake but for four movies. An animated version
of Sholay is expected to start mid-September and
the original remake will commence from this year
end. The other two will be a prequel and sequel
to the legendary movie. This is definitely turning
out to be interesting.
Another news doing the rounds is that the legendary
Devdas is going to be made again in Hindi in the
contemporary world with Shiney Ahuja and Lara
Dutta. Maybe the idea is emulated from Ram Gopal
Verma as Aag is a contemporary take on the blockbuster.
