Saturday, 20th Sept 2014, 7:02 PM IST Sonam Kapoor starrer ‘Khoobsurat’ is the remake of 1980 release movie ‘Khubsoorat’ starring Rekha in the lead role, and when the veteran actress saw the film she liked it and appreciated it. It is learnt that Rekha watched the film on Tuesday night, but only after a lot of persuasion and procrastination.
A source close to Anil Kapoor’s family said, “Rekha is very close to Anil and his wife Sunita. Rekha loves Rhea and Sonam and treats them like her own daughters. Sonam is specially close to Rekha’s heart. But very honestly Rekha was wary of seeing the ‘Khubsoorat’ remake after what had happened with the remake of her other iconic film ‘Umrao Jaan’.”
But, it is said that when Anil and Rhea urged her to watch the film, she agreed to watch it.
Talking about the same, Anil said, “She loved the film and she loved Sonam. Rekha said Sonam has nailed the character. What better compliment can there be for Sonam?”
Sonam adds, “I wasn’t at the screening. My sister was there. I heard Rekhaji loved the film. I know she loves me. She says I’m the daughter she never had.” |
