Betaab remake on the cards with Sara Ali Khan & Karan Deol

Saif Ali Khan and Amrita Singh's daughter, Sara Ali Khan, was set for her launch in Bollywood with Abhishek Kapoor's forthcoming film, Kedarnath. Based on the catastrophic floods of June 2013 in Kedarnath, Uttarakhand, the film was being bankrolled by KriArj Entertainment in association with Balaji Motion Pictures. However, the much-talked-about project has hit troubled waters and now, the doting parents of the newbie are, reportedly, looking for other opportunities to launch their daughter.

While Sara Ali Khan is already leading the race to become Ranveer Singh's heroine in Rohit Shetty's upcoming film, Simmba, buzz also has it that she might pair up with superstar Sunny Deol’s son, Karan Deol, in the remake of the hit film, Betaab.


Interestingly, Betaab marked the acting debut of Sara Ali Khan's mother, Amrita Singh, and Karan Deol's father, Sunny Deol, in 1983. Directed by Rahul Rawail, the film was an instant hit at the ticket window and is still remembered for its intense story and melodious songs.

Reportedly, Prernaa Arora of KriArj Entertainment is quite upset about the whole fiasco of Kedarnath. She does not want Sara to suffer because of her legal battle with director Abhishek Kapoor and hence, she has decided to remake Betaab for Sara. The film has been reportedly titled as Betaab Again.

Meanwhile, Karan Deol is shooting for his debut film, Pal Pal Dil Ke Pas. The project is being helmed by his father, Sunny Deol.

Joaquin Pedro Valdes on finding his place in London and challenging stereotypes in British theatre

Highlights

  • Filipino actor Joaquin Pedro Valdes left a career in filmmaking and advertising to pursue musical theatre in the UK, following his first love for the stage.
  • Now playing Benny in RENT, he wants audiences to see the character as a complicated human being rather than simply the villain.
  • Valdes believes Asian representation in British theatre has improved, but says producers and creative teams still have a long way to go.

Filipino actor Joaquin Pedro Valdes spent nine years working in filmmaking, directing commercials and advertising before deciding to pursue the one passion he could never leave behind. Theatre had been part of his life since childhood, but turning it into a full-time career meant leaving Manila, moving to the UK and rebuilding his professional life in a new country.

Now performing as Benny in the West End production of RENT, Valdes is drawing on his own experiences of ambition, financial pressure and belonging to explore a character who is often dismissed as the musical's antagonist. For him, Benny's story is about more than money. It is about someone who once belonged to a community but chose a different path in the hope of building a better life.
