The
suspense
is
over!
Himesh
Reshammiya's
second
release
as
an
actor,
after
Aap
Ka
Suroor,
will
be
produced
by
T-Series'
head
honcho
Bhushan
Kumar.
Now
here's
something
vital
on
the
project:
It'll
be
a
remake
of
Subhash
Ghai's
smash
hit
Karz.
Incidentally,
Himesh
had
crooned
a
number
from
the
film,
'Dar-e-dil
dard-e-jigar',
in
Aap
Ka
Suroor.
Himesh
will
be
playing
the
part
that
Rishi
Kapoor
had
enacted
in
the
original.
The
other
characters
--
Tina
Munim,
Simi
Grewal,
Raj
Kiran,
Durga
Khote
and
Pran
--
are
in
the
process
of
finalization.
To
be
made
on
an
extravagant
scale,
the
remake
of
Karz
will
have
fresh
tunes
composed
by
Himesh.
In
fact,
Himesh
has
decided
on
a
makeover
for
this
film.
Meanwhile,
Ghai
has
decided
against
remaking
films
produced
by
Mukta
Arts
himself.
A
text
message
to
this
writer
says
it
all:
"How
can
I
remake
my
own
scripts,
when
I
am
looking
ahead
at
newer
ideas?
But,
I
am
sure,
the
remake
of
Karz
will
be
welcomed
by
the
present-day
generation
and
I
wish
luck
to
Bhushan
and
Himesh."
