A remake of 7G Rainbow Colony in the works at Bhansali Productions

After the smashing success of Padmaavat (2018), acclaimed filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali has not announced his next project yet. There have been countless speculations about his next directorial venture, though.

But if latest reports are to be believed, the director has acquired the remake rights of the bilingual romantic drama 7G Rainbow Colony, which released in 2004 and turned out to be one of the biggest hits of the year.


7G Rainbow Colony was shot simultaneously in Tamil and Telugu. After the Tamil and Telugu versions did exceptionally well at the box-office, the movie was then remade in other languages like Odia, Bengali and Kannada. Now, it seems, 7G Rainbow Colony is set for a Hindi adaptation by Sanjay Leela Bhansali.

“There is a buzz in the trade that SLB and T-Series have taken the rights of the film. There is no official confirmation that it is a remake, and the makers are searching for a date in the second half of the year to release the movie,” a source reveals.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali is also rumoured to be working on a film which might feature superstars Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan in lead roles. With so many stories swirling around, an official announcement regarding the next project of the ace filmmaker is highly awaited.

  • Tech firms will be forced to block such content or face heavy Ofcom fines.
  • Experts say the ban responds to medical evidence and years of campaigning.

You see it everywhere now. In mainstream pornography, a man’s hands around a woman’s neck. It has become so common that for many, especially the young, it just seems like part of sex, a normal step. The UK government has decided it should not be, and soon, it will be a crime.

The plan is to make possessing or distributing pornographic material that shows sexual strangulation, often called ‘choking’, illegal. This is a specific amendment to the Crime and Policing Bill. Ministers are acting on the back of a stark, independent review. That report found this kind of violence is not just available online, but it is rampant. It has quietly, steadily, become normalised.
