Couple months ago, Farhan Akhtar announced an ambitious project titled 'Jee Le Zara' with which he is planning to make his comeback as a director. It is supposed to be a roadtrip drama like 'Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara' but with an all female cast. The plot will revolve around three friends, played by Alia Bhatt, Katrina Kaif and Priyanka Chopra.
Recently, during a chat with Mid-Day, Farhan talked about this passion project. He said, "I am overjoyed at the response to the announcement. It goes to show that there is space for stories about girls going out and doing their thing."
Farhan further explained why he decided to make a film with three female leads. He said, "Whether it’s a drama, comedy or thriller, [there should be] films made about women. That balance is healthy for the creative world. Where you have the male point of view, you also have the female point of view on things. Emotionally, the construct of the two is similar (on a certain plane) yet different. To see the world through women’s eyes is important in popular culture. The more we (embrace) it, the healthier it will be for society."
'Jee Le Zara' is supposed to go on floors by 2022 and it might release sometime in 2023.
