After
much
speculation,
the
title
of
Vishal
Bharadwaj's
next
film,
an
adaptation
of
Shakespeare's
Othello
has
finally
been
decided
upon.
Among
options
like
O
Saathi
Re
and
Issak,
the
winner
is
Omkara.
And
most
of
the
cast
and
crew
members
are
happy
with
the
choice.
In
the
beginning,
the
makers
were
quite
unsure
about
the
most
suitable
title.
And
so
a
contest,
seeking
the
public's
opinion
was
launched.
Approximately
25
lakh
people,
the
world
over
voted.
And
more
than
80
per
cent
of
them
opted
for
Omkara.
Mangat
is
happy
about
the
title
since
they
always
wanted
a
title
beginning
with
the
alphabet
'O.'
This
title
was
also
the
first
choice
of
director
Vishal
Bharadwaj,
Saif
Ali
Khan,
Bipasha
Basu,
Kareena
Kapoor
and
Konkana
Sen
Sharma.
The
other
title
which
was
quite
a
favorite
among
others
was
Issak.
It
was
the
title
that
other
members
of
the
cast
like
Naseeruddin
Shah,
Ajay
Devgan
and
Vivek
Oberoi
wanted.
Well,
we're
sure
it
should
not
matter
now.
After
all
it
was
the
bard
himself
who
said
that
a
rose
by
any
other
name
would
smell
as
sweet!
