We have seen a trend of remakes in Bollywood in the past few years. Many of the movies like Don, Agneepath and Pati Patni aur Who have been remade and were extremely successful on box office. But there are some classics, that none of the director, actor, or its fans wants to be touched. The 1995 Rangeela is one of those.
This ’95 classic hit stared Aamir Khan, Urmila Matondkar and Jackie Shroff. Along with the acting and story line of the film, the film was also loved for its great music by AR Rahman. Director Ram Gopal Verma opens up on the remake of his 1995 successful romantic drama.
He said, “Honestly speaking, in all the films that I made in my career and there are plenty of them, I feel I could not have made Rangeela and Satya better than what they are. Rangeela and Satya were near perfect, so I don’t think I would make them again.”
About casting Urmila, he said, “She worked in my Telugu film Gaayam, and when I saw her dancing, I felt mesmerised. In fact, she is the main reason why I was inspired to make the film. It was to capture her beauty.”
