My film not adapted: Siddharth Anand
There is a strong rumour that Ranbir Kapoor’s post-debut film, to be directed by childhood friend Siddharth Anand, is a remake of Hollywood romantic comedy “The Bachelor”.
But the young Anand, currently scripting the movie, completely denies adapting it from Gary Sinyor’s 1999 film.
“My film is certainly not adapted from any source. It’s as much ‘The Bachelor’ as my ‘Ta Ra Rum Pum’ was ‘Reservoir Dogs’,” Anand told IANS.
Ranbir, the son of Rishi and Neetu Kapoor, is debuting with Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s “Saawariya” and the rumours of him doing Chris O’Donnel’s role from “The Bachelor” originated from the casting of several prominent leading ladies opposite the young actor.
While Katrina Kaif plays one of the leading ladies, Deepika Padukone, who stars with Shah Rukh Khan in “Om Shanti Om”, has been finalised to play another lead.
