Charlie's Angles: Indian version

  • IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,February 14 2008]

Previously ‘heroines’ were just there in the films for adding glamour, running around trees playing love games with our mighty heroes or were portrayed as type-casts shedding tears bucket after bucket! Or for screaming ‘Nahiiii…….!’

Things are slowly changing for the better in Bollywood for ‘heroines’. Though we cannot shun the glamour aspect of their presence in films, present-day heroines are portrayed as beauties with brains and an ‘I-can-take-care-of-myself’ kind of air about them.

You might think I am a feminist, which I am not. We are talking about the Indian version of the famous ‘Charlie’s Angels’ that might start rolling soon. Rohit Jugraj whose latest release ‘Superstar’ has received good reviews is planning to make this film in Hindi. According to sources Rohit has been approached by Abbas Mustan duo to direct this glamorous action flick, and Rohit has confirmed that he will be directing this film.

If rumours can be believed we might get to see the super sexy Sushmita Sen, Lara Dutta, and Priyanka Chopra perform dare-devil stunts and chase the bad guys. The contemporary version in English had starred Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu and had become a super hit in Hollywood as well as in India.

Will this Hindi version be made to suit the taste of Indian audience with twists and turns in the plot, only time has to tell. Keep watching this space for latest updates!
