Sunil Bohra and Viacom18 together bought the rights to remake the 1972 made film Seeta Aur Geeta that starred Dharmendra, Hema Malini and Sanjeev Kumar.
Seeta Aur Geeta is a story about identical twins who are separated at birth and grow up with different temperaments. The twins then swap places.
Katrina Kaif will do the remake of one of the most successful film of 1972 Seeta aur Geeta. She will play Hema Malini’s role. Akshay Kumar and Abhay Deol will play the roles which were played by Dharmendra and
Sanjeev Kumar in the original.
The Seeta Aur Geeta remake had run into legal hassles over licensing issues. Producer GP Sippy's son Suresh had raised objections against GP Sippy's grandsons, Sascha and Shaan, claiming that they had no right to
license the Seeta Aur Geeta remake. The remake that was stuck due to the Sippy family feud will soon go on floors now that the fight has been resolved.
Sasha said, "Bohra can definitely go ahead with that film. I have told him that we Sippys are now on the same page. Also, I am meeting Bohra next week." she added, "We are also very pleased to announce that our younger cousin Shehzad, Suresh Sippy's son has joined the team."
So, now we’ll be able to enjoy the Chikni Chameli Katrina in a double role – one, that of a seedhi saadhi ladki and the other of a street-smart girl.
