Rejoice Bollywood addicts, I have news that will chase away your mid-week blues! Ekta Kapoor, the queen of dramatic soap operas, has decided to take one of India’s favourite movies, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham and turn it into a TV show. The rumours are that she is planning a big project post her Naagin success. Though Ekta Kapoor does have a lot on her plate, with Naagin 3, Yeh Hai Mohabbatein’s spin-off and Kasautii Zindagii Kay 2. But if this is happening it might be the biggest thing Indian television has seen in a long time.
Though the first question that pops into my head is, who would play Poo? Would the show begin where the movie ended? Or would it cover the missing years which the movie skipped? About how everyone grew up and the difficulties Rahul and Anjali faced while making a new life for themselves?
The writer in me can’t keep calm about the million ideas buzzing in my head. But knowing Ekta Kapoor, she’ll surprise us all nevertheless. Here is hoping she keeps the iconic dialogues that have become a part of our daily vocabulary!
