One
of
the
most
awaited
releases
of
the
year,
Rab
Ne
Bana
Di
Jodi
(RNBDJ),
which
marks
the
return
to
direction
of
the
scion
of
the
Chopra
family,
Aditya
Chopra,
is
progressing
briskly.
As
we
had
broken
the
news,
earlier
this
month,
the
latest
addition
to
the
film's
cast
is
Vinay
Pathak,
and
he
has
confirmed
the
news
officially.
Unlike
the
popular
perception,
the
reason
as
to
why
it
took
eight
years
for
Aditya
Chopra
to
return
to
direction
is
very
simple.
The
Dilwale
Dulhania
Le
Jayenge
and
Mohabbatein
director
was
busy
in
production
work
and
had
assigned
the
job
of
direction
to
different
directors,
several
of
them
new.
He
also
completed
the
setting
up
of
the
formidable
state-of-the-art
Yash
Raj
Studio.
Coming
to
the
Shahrukh
Khan-Anushka
Sharma
starrer,
RNBDJ,
unlike
Aditya's
previous
directorial
ventures,
as
mentioned
above,
this
one
is
going
to
be
a
quickie
and
if
things
go
according
to
plans,
Rab
Ne
Bana
Di
Jodi
will
release
before
the
year
2008
ends.
