Sushmitha Sen as Benazir
- IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,January 27 2009]
Biopics are not new and unique when it comes to Bollywood filmmakers who have vividly churned them out. This time, it is gonna be a film based on life history of late Former Prime Minister of Pakistan, Benazir Bhutto. Perhaps, it's Pakistani Filmmakers who would be rendering this biopic on their most respected woman leader assassinated on Dec 27, 2007 in Rawalpindi, Pakistan.
Actress Sushmitha Sen has enthusiastically signed up for the film and she says, 'Yup! I am so excited about playing this role. But things are yet to be finalized till producers of the film seek permission from Pakistan Peoples' Party.'
Sushmitha Sen seems to be constantly watching the clippings of Benazir Bhutto. Also, she is working out on vocalizing Urdu dictions perfectly. The film would be made bilingually in both English and Urdu.
The film will be produced by Pakistani producers Zaid Aziz and Henna Rai of Karachi production firm Vox Vision and Leicester-based Sum Films. Buzzes are that the film may be titled as 'Benazir Bhutto: The Movie' and it would be shot at various locations of Pakistan, US, Britain and Dubai, where Bhutto spent her days as a student and as an exiled politician.
