It's really disgusting that directors like Farhan Akhtar and J.P. Dutta come up with these UNoriginal stories we don't need! :x

If Farhan himself writes the screenplay of the Don remake, I'm pretty sure that it might even turn out to be superior than the original.

I absolutely agree with you. I have all faith in Farhan Akhtar as a script writer and a director. The thing is, why would a person of his "calibre" remake a film which almost everyone is familiar with? It's like wasting the talent he has in doing something which is not as original as DIL CHAHTA HAI and LAKSHYA. It's like taking a step back.

Although I have to agree with MalFunxion too, that such a film could be really good if Farhan only uses the basis plot and gives the film a real substance and a completely different setting and style, instead of "just a cool film like DON".

From that point of view, I have no objection. It's just that it's like there are no original ideas left in Indian cinema. :(

As per Gujarati newspaper & anotherBW website, Aishwarya to play Dutta's Umra :evil: Jaan.

:evil: :evil: J. P. Dutta's Umrao Jaan will have: Abhishek in Farukh Sheikh's role, Shabana Azmi as Umrao Jaan's mother, Music by Anu Malik & Lyrics by Javed Akhtar. :evil: :evil:

Can somebody confirm whether Shaukat Azmi (Shabana's mother) played the role of Umrao Jaan's mother in Muzaffar Ali’s movie?
