Sanjay Dutt wants Aishwarya Rai to play Nargis’ role in ‘Raat Aur Din’ remake

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who recently featured in ‘Fanney Khan’ starring Rajkummar Rao, Anil Kapoor and Divya Dutta, has an interesting set of films, as per reports, which have the possibility of being made. In a recent tell-all interview with DNA, the former miss world spoke about the film with her husband and actor Abhishek Bachchan titled ‘Gulan Jamun’. Mrs Bachcan also spilled a few beans on the remake of the two films, which she may star in.

Aishwarya confirmed the possibility of doing movies including the surrogacy movie which is titled ‘Jasmine’, ‘Raat Aur Din’ remake which originally starred late actress Nargis Dutt and 1964 film ‘Wo Kaun Thi’s remake opposite Shahid Kapoor. The ‘Jodhaa Akhbar’ actress said, “I had asked the makers of the surrogacy story (‘Jasmine’) for a rewrite. There were two remakes (‘Woh Kaun Thi’ and ‘Raat Aur Din’), which were interesting ideas. I respect the movies of those times (the ’60s). So, I asked them to get their rights in place.”

Recalling that Sanjay Dutt had told her that if the remake of ‘Raat Aur Din’ is ever made, she should play the role of Nargis, Ash said, “When Sanju (Sanjay Dutt) and I were filming ‘Shabd’ (2005), he had said that if there was ever a remake of ‘Raat Aur Din’, I should essay the protagonist. It made me happy that he believed I could play his mother’s role.”

Wouldn’t it be interesting to see this beauty stepping to the shoes of the legendary actress Nargis? Well, we do feel so. What about you?
