Covering Bollywood and the Hindi Cinema

According to the grapevine, Yash Chopra’s dream to cast Amitabh Bachchan and Sridevi together remains a pipedream. The Bollywood diva has turned down Chopra (something unheard of) and even Amar Singh was roped into to convince the Kapoors. Apparently its hubby Boney Kapoor who doesn’t want wife Sridevi to act since he wants her comeback in one of his home productions.

Says an industry insider:
“After a few days, Yash and Sridevi's husband Boney Kapoor had a chat about this film. Boney told Yash that he too was keen to re-launch his wife Sridevi in his own production and it would be better if Yash cast some other actress instead.”
