Ajay Devgn signs Anees Bazmee's next Saade Saati

Back in 2015, filmmaker Anees Bazmee was on the verge of signing superstar Ajay Devgn for a romantic entertainer. However, things did not fall into place and the project could not be materialised. Now, the news is coming in that Bazmee has finally roped in the National Award winning actor for a film.

Ajay Devgn and Anees Bazmee last worked together in the 2002 film Deewangee, also starring Akshaye Khanna and Urmila Matondkar. They have joined hands again after a massive gap of 16 years. If sources are to be believed, their next venture will be a comic-caper titled Saade Saati.


''The movie is a comedy and it revolves around Ajay, who is suffering from 7 years of bad luck, which in astrological terms is called Saade Saati. The movie goes on floors this November and the rest of the cast is being finalised," reveals a source.

Ajay Devgn's latest film Raid has opened to an extremely positive response today. The actor is currently shooting for Indra Kumar's forthcoming comic-caper Total Dhamaal, which also features Anil Kapoor, Madhuri Dixit, Riteish Deshmukh and Arshad Warsi. Besides Total Dhamaal, the actor will also be seen in a biopic titled Taanaji and Luv Ranjan's next untitled film with Tabu and Rakul Preet Singh.

An official announcement on Saade Saati is still awaited.

'My Brilliant Career' review: Netflix makes a 125-year-old feminist story feel dangerously modern

Highlights

  • Netflix’s six-part series adapts Miles Franklin’s 1901 feminist novel
  • Phillipa Northeast stars as Sybylla Melvyn, a young writer determined to avoid the life chosen for her
  • The adaptation combines period drama with modern music, frank sexuality and stories of racism and social inequality

An erotic poem, a scandalised grandmother and a young woman with little interest in marriage make for an unexpectedly lively opening to My Brilliant Career. Netflix’s six-part adaptation of Miles Franklin’s 1901 novel wastes little time establishing that this will not be a restrained period drama.

Adapted by Liz Doran, the series follows Sybylla Melvyn, a fiercely independent young woman who dreams of becoming a writer. It follows Gillian Armstrong’s acclaimed 1979 film starring Judy Davis and Sam Neill, but brings a distinctly contemporary energy to Franklin’s story.
