MUMBAI:
David Dhawan is planning a remake of Basu Chatterjis
1975 made rom-com Choti Si Baat.
Choti
Si Baat is about a painfully shy young man Arun
Pradeep (Amol Palekar), who lacks self-confidence and
fails to stand up for his convictions; he is in the
process making a mockery of himself. One fine day he
comes across Prabha Narayan (Vidya Sinha) at the bus
stop en route to work and it's love at first sight..
Lacking enough courage and unsure if his feelings are
being reciprocated, he pines for her from afar and follows
her around from a safe distance. Prabha, fully aware
of his affections, secretly relishes his discomfort,
while waiting for him to make the first move.
In
his desperation, Pradeep finally turns to Colonel
Julius Nagendranath Wilfred Singh (Ashok Kumar) who
agrees to help him and, thus, begins the turnaround
as Singh begins to mould Arun into a mature, confident
young man.
It
is being said that Dhawan is in plans to cast Anil
Kapoor and Ali Zafar in stellar roles. The film will
have Zafar play the role of the shy introvert who
takes the help of Kapoor to win over his lady love.
