It"s
like
the
phrase,
'to
return
from
the
dead',
got
a
whole
new
meaning.
36
years
after
it
finished
filming
in
1974,
Aahat
–
Ek
Ajib
Kahani
starring
Vinod
Mehra,
Jaya
Bachchan
and
Amrish
Puri
is
releasing
this
year.
The
film
is
directed
by
Kishore
Rege.
According
to
Salim
Jafer,
the
distributor
of
the
film
in
India,
it
is
set
for
a
February
26
release.
Though
both
actors
Vinod
Mehra
and
Amrish
Puri
are
no
more,
Jaya
Bachchan
has
been
told
of
the
release
and
she
is
happy
that
the
film
will
get
to
see
the
light
of
the
day.
While
Salim
doesn"t
wish
to
talk
about
the
reasons
behind
the
almost
four
decade
long
delay,
he
simply
asserts
that
at
first
there
were
all
sorts
of
problems
and
then
the
producer
of
the
movie,
Franklin
Fernandes
died.
Finally,
the
film
got
a
new
producer–
SP
Seth.
They
are
happy
to
be
releasing
a
film
that
has
such
known
names.
According
to
SP
Seth,
Jaya
Bachchan
plays
a
blind
girl
in
the
flick
with
Vinod
Mehra
playing
a
cameraman
while
Amrish
Puri
is
the
villain.
