We should say that after ‘Kandukonden Kandukonden’ Rajeev Menon was on a long leave. A small tweak here, he was dormant in making movies but was all time busy with ad-films.

The latest news about the filmmaker is that he will direct a film soon. The high light of this news is that the heroine of the movie will be his favorite Aishwarya Rai. The gentleman who will romance her in the move is none other than her real life Jodi Abishek.

One has to admit that if Rajeev Menon turns over an old film, it’s not that easy to find out that it’s a remake. Birdies say that he has plans to use the story of the super hit Bollywood film ‘Abhiman’. Interestingly it is a film that had Amitabh Bachchan and his wife-actress Jaya Bachchan in the lead roles.

When our sources enquired about this imitation matter to Rajeev, “I did not remake or imitate ‘Abhiman’. I’m just making another film that has the shades of ‘Abhiman’,” he said coolly.

Back seat drivers are always there. So go on Rajeev!
