New Delhi:
Alia Bhatt's mother, actress Soni Razdan, said that there are more chances of them becoming co-stars than she directing the
Udta Punjab star in a film, reports
Mumbai Mirror. "We'd love to work together but we're more likely to act together than me directing Alia. Our
relationship is so lovely; we don't want to burden it with anything to do with films. Soni but if something interesting comes our way, why not," she said. Soni Razdan has directed 2005 film
Nazar, starring Meera and Ashmit Patel.
She was all set to direct another film, titled
Love Affair but the actress-filmmaker said that the period piece required a "substantial budget". "I will revisit it sometime in the future," she told
Mumbai Mirror.
Meanwhile, Soni Razdan is all set for a comeback on the small screen with television show
Utre Na Rang Mahi, by Siddhath P Malhotra, according to
Mumbai Mirror. Siddhath P Malhotra is the director of
We Are Family and Rani Mukerji's upcoming film
Hichki. Soni Razdan, who plays a Rajmata Rajeshwari Singh Ranawat in the show, said that there's "nothing of a royal lady in me in real life. You see me mostly in jeans and tees. When Siddharth called, I wasn't interested in television as it's a lot of hard work. But the subject piqued my curiosity and since my next directorial,
Love Affair, has been delayed, I took up the offer," she told
Mumbai Mirror.
Soni Razdan has featured in shows like
Buniyaad and
Aisa Des Hai Mera. She started her Bollywood career with 1981 film
36 Chowringhee Lane and went on star in films like
Sadak,
Sir,
Patiala House and
Shootout at Wadala.
