Veteran actor Rajesh Khanna is acting in a movie about romance between a 60-yr-old man and a 25-yr-old girl.
The film, titled Wafaa , is being directed by Rakesh Sawant (Rakhi Sawant’s brother) and has south Indian actress Laila cast opposite Rajesh Khanna.
Though the film’s story seems pretty similar to Ram Gopal Varma’s Nishabd (with Amitabh Bachchan in the lead), the movie’s director insists that similarities are superficial.
Sawant reveals that ‘Wafaa’ is the story of an old man who marries a young girl. The film has Rajesh Khanna playing a rich businessman. Laila plays the young girl who marries him but then has extramarital affair with another man, a younger one.
The film is a crime thriller with a shocking twist in the end.
‘Wafaa’ will also have some intimate scenes. But such scenes don’t feature Rajesh Khanna. They have been shot on Laila and her young co-star. The film also has an item song shot on Kainaaz.
