Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein sequel on the anvil

Starring R Madhavan and Dia Mirza in principal roles, Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein (2001) is one of the most loved romantic comedies of Bollywood. Though the film did not set the cash registers jingling upon its release, it has attained a cult following among youth over the years thanks to countless repeats on television.

Talks about a possible sequel to the film have been around for quite a long time now. But if fresh reports are to be believed, the makers are now really planning to roll out a sequel to the film, 20 years after its theatrical release in 2001.


According to reports, the makers have now found a suitable script to take the story forward. Not just that, we also hear that the original duo R Madhavan and Dia Mirza are expected to reprise their roles in the sequel.

A source in the know informs a publication that the script is in the final stage of development. “The makers toyed with some concepts, on and off, over the years. Only now have they found a script that has appealed to everyone and seems a natural progression to the lives of Maddy and Reena (the characters essayed by Madhavan and Mirza respectively). The script is in the final stage of development,” divulges the source.

Helmed by well-known South Indian filmmaker Gautham Menon, Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein is a remake of his own Tamil film Minnale (2001) which also featured R Madhavan. The Hindi film marked the silver screen debut of beauty pageant winner Dia Mirza. Apart from the film, its album has also gained a cult following.

Amazon’s ‘God of War’ reset proves Hollywood can’t get video game adaptations right

Highlights

  • Dave Bautista is taking over as Kratos after Ryan Hurst's injury forced Amazon to recast the role.
  • The series is effectively starting again, with none of the footage from the original production being used.
  • The major reset puts fresh pressure on Amazon's attempt to adapt one of gaming's most recognisable franchises.

Hollywood's relationship with video game adaptations has changed considerably in recent years. Shows such as The Last of Us and Fallout have demonstrated that games can translate successfully to television when their characters and worlds are treated with care. Amazon's God of War, however, has already encountered a production setback that makes its journey to the screen considerably more complicated.

Dave Bautista has closed his deal to play Kratos in the Prime Video series after Ryan Hurst, who was originally cast in the role, suffered a serious on-set injury. Hurst reportedly tore his bicep while performing a stunt in June, around four months into filming. Amazon MGM Studios and Sony Pictures Television subsequently decided to recast the central role.
