With every producer and director of fame running to remake old classics, it came as no surprise when director Rajeev Menon said that he intended to remake Abhimaan, the 1973, Amitabh Bachchan-Jaya Bhaduri starrer, which was directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee. The film's producer, Pawan Kumar, is however, not having any of this.
He has claimed that he has the copyright of the film and is the owner of the film. Kumar himself has intentions of remaking the Seventies classic, with the Senior Bachchans playing the parents and the junior Bachchans, Abhishek and Aishwarya Rai playing the lead roles.But Kumar dismisses that as mere talk and says that nothing has been finalised yet.
It is believed that that the Big B asked him to find a director who could do full justice to the Hrishikesh Mukherjee classic. But with nothing has yet been finalised.Kumar promises to make an announcement in a little while. He plans to retain some of the old songs to keep the flavour of the film alive.The original's music was composed by the late SD Burman. Its songs still have a lot of appeal.Apparently, besides Menon even Rakesh Mehra wanted to remake the film with AR Rahman composing the music.
