It may sound very surprising. But the Bollywood’s evergreen actress Rekha has rejected the most speculated movie ‘Rana’ starring superstar Rajinikanth.
According to grapevines, Rekha opted out of the mega-budgeted movie owing to problem in the remuneration. There said to have been some monetary issues between Rekha and the producers, Ocher Studios. Sources added that the actress is not keen to work in the film, unless she is paid what she thinks she deserves. She had allegedly asked for nearly four crores for the film which didn’t go well with the producers. Following which, Rekha chose to walk out of the film.
But there is nothing to be disheartening about…. For speculations are rife that the producers of ‘Rana’ are now considering Bollywood’s yet another evergreen beauty Hema Malini, for the role!
Wait, there’s more to this… It is also heard that Vidya Balan too has given thumbs down to ‘Rana’. Sources revealed that the actress had requested to read the film’s full script – a demand which did not please director K S Ravikumar. However the filmmaker has different point of view. He said to sources that there have been script changes and once it gets finalised than they might get back to Vidya.
Hmmm, in ‘Rana’ Rajini features along side three heroines in different stages – older, middle aged and younger one. Now with Deepika Padukone being the only lady steady in the team, wonder when will be the other two actresses confirmed… Rana’s shooting is slated to start soon in April.
