After recently released Inkaar, Deepti Naval has Listen Amaya coming up on February 1.
Highlights
- Deepti Naval-Farooq Shaikh starrer classic Chashme Buddoor is being remade by comedy king David Dhawan but the veteran actress feels that the new film won't have the innocence of the 80's.
- The 1981 romantic comedy film starred Rakesh Bedi, Ravi Baswani and Saeed Jaffrey alongside the lead actors.
- The Sai Paranjpe film is about three students- Siddharth (Farooq), Omi (Rakesh) and Jai (Ravi) at Delhi University, who don't go home during summer vacation and how life takes a turn when Neha (Deepti Naval) comes into picture.
- The remake version stars Pakistani singer-actor Ali Zafar, Taapsee Pannu, Siddharth, Divyendu Sharma and Rishi Kapoor in the lead roles. Juhi Chawla and Anupam Kher are also set to play surprise roles in the movie, which releases on April 5.
- Now that everything is in place, the 55-year-old actress is curious to see how things turn out in the remake.
- "There won't be innocence of those years, of the 80's but what would be the interpretation of today is something I would like to see. David Dhawan was an assistant when Farooq and I were doing Saath Saath. So we will have to see how the film has come out," Deepti Naval told PTI here.
- "I am sure it will be exciting to see what the three boys and the girl would have done. I want to see what they would do when placed in today's times and how they will react today, their chemistry," she said.
- "Today films are entertaining, loud with lot of music, item numbers. There are couple of films that are new and very nice to watch. I am sure lot of such films will come out. I am looking forward to this year," Deepti Naval added. Though the actress-filmmaker may not be appearing in movies regularly, she definitely does catch up with latest releases, going by word of mouth.
- "I do watch movies I go with word of mouth, I ask people how the film is. I always make it a point to see films when somebody credible recommends it. It may not necessarily be an arty film it can be out-an-out entertaining film," Deepti Naval said.
- After recently released Inkaar, she will be next seen in debutant director Avinash Kumar Singh's Listen Amaya that hits screen on February 1.
- For this film, she has teamed up with Farooq again after many years.
- The film is about the relationship between a middle aged widow essayed by Deepti and her daughter played by Swara Bhaskar (of Tanu Weds Manu fame) and what happens when the mother falls in love with a 60-year-old retired photographer played by Farooq Shaikh.
