Sanjay Gupta & Feroz Khan to remake QURBANI

According to the latest reports Sanjay Gupta will direct Feroz Khan's 1980 blockbuster QURBANI remake. And now the remake of QURBANI is titled as KURBANI.

Feroz Khan had this long time dream to remake QURBANI and cast his son Fardeen and Saif Ali Khan in the roles originally played by himself and Vinod Khanna. Sources reveal that, if Sanjay hadn't come forward to take on the responsibility, the project would have gone into the cold storage. Sanjay Gupta is a die-hard Feroz Khan fan and this remake is his way of paying tribute to the cinema of 1980s that he has always admired. Looking at Sanjay's enthusiasm the veteran actor Feroz Khan got so much impressed that he has decided to produce the new KURBANI jointly with him.

As per the sources Fardeen is slated to step into his father's role. Stars who will play Vinod Khanna, Zeenat Aman and Amjad Khan's characters are yet to be finalized. Sanjay was faced with choice of casting Vinod and Amjad's sons but found the idea too gimmicky and will not play around with his homeage to the hit film and its flamboyant maker. It is likely that Mallika Sherawat may play Zeenat's character in the remake.

Some of QURBANI's original music by Kalyanji-Anandji and Biddu, including 'Aap Jaisa Koi Meri Zindagi Mein Aaye' will be retained.

Though the excitement seems to in the air but final confirmation is yet to come from either parties.
