Movies imitate real life. Yes, the ongoing tussle between the two Ambani brothers has inspired a Bollywood filmmaker to make a movie on the subject.
After his forgettable film Market , Prakash Shaw is writing the screenplay of a movie which he says is inspired and roughly based on the Ambani family and the differences between two brothers Mukesh and Anil Ambani.
“Brothers feuding over property ownership issues is a common phenomenon among several families,” Prakash told a website.
However, Prakash will take cinematic liberty and will use the feud between brothers as just a backdrop and concentrate more on the wife of one of the brothers who seeks a divorce in the film.
To play the role of one of the Ambani wives, Prakash is thinking of roping in either Neha Dhupia or Mallika Sherawat .
The film will most likely be titled Sauda – The Deal and will go on floors early next year and will be ready for release in the second half of 2005.
