Earlier we had that the ace filmmaker had roped in our light-eyed beauty, Rani Mukherji, in a screen adaptation of Salman Rushdie’s Midnight’s Children. Now the latest update about the film is that Deepa Mehta has included our charming lady, Vidya Balan in the script.

The lady director wants Vidya to feature as Rani’s sister in the film. Vidya is said to be quite elated to bag the offer, especially to work with the director.

However, going by grapevines’ stories, the two beauties, Rani and Vidya, seem to share cold vibes within each other. It all started when director Pradeep Sarkar, whose ‘Parineeta’ launched Balan to fame, chose over Mukherji in his next film ‘Laaga Chunari Mein Daag’. This incident said to have surprised Balan, which also in turn made things sour between the two actresses.

On the other hand, talking about Rani and Vidya Deepa Mehta stated, “I see them as sisters. They are both lovely. I am dying to work with them together.”

Hmmmm…. Let’s wait to see what happens next…
