Rekha to play Sharman Joshi’s grandmother

Bollywood diva Rekha is set to play the role of grandmother to Sharman Joshi’s character in a forthcoming film.

According to The Times Of India, the film produced and directed by Indra Kumar is expected to go on the floors in January.

The light hearted social drama revolves around the relationship between Rekha and Sharman.

A source told the publication, “The actor plays a US-returned guy, who is extremely fond of his naani (Rekha). He stands up for her when she is ill-treated by the family. Randhir Kapoor plays Sharman’s grandfather.”

Joshi said, “I’m looking forward to working with her. She is extremely versatile and one of the finest actresses of Indian cinema,” reacted Sharman when the paper met him in Lucknow on his recent visit, adding, ” She is playing my grand mother in the movie and the story revolves around the relationship we both share.”

Randhir Kapoor is also expected to be part of the show.
