Bollywood grapevine has it that filmmaker Mani Ratnam is thinking of reviving Lajjo .
The film, announced last year, is still nowhere close to beginning despite the fact that Mani Ratnam had even finalized Aamir Khan and Kareena Kapoor to play the lead roles.
It is believed that Mani and producer Bobby Bedi don’t see eye-to-eye on certain issues about the project. Reports say that Bobby is not keen on producing the film.
But Mani Ratnam seems determined to make ‘Lajjo’. He has reportedly been having constant meetings with writer Renzil D’Souza to write the script.
Not just Ratnam, even Aamir Khan is very eager to see that the film is made. Contrary to certain reports, Aamir says he is not responsible for the film’s delay.
The shooting of the film was expected to begin by the end of year 2007. Now, if all goes well, the movie may go on the floors early next year.
