Rekha to do a Sridevi?

People are still talking about Sridevi’s spectacular comeback in English Vinglish which is creating box-office magic even now. But as is typical with Bollywood, it seems to have sparked off a new trend! The latest news is that Rekha – the elusive diva of Bollywood – will return to the screen shortly as well, in a new avatar! She’s currently in talks with old favourite Indra Kumar to play the lead role in a film based on a Gujarati play called ‘Baa Ae Mari Boundary’. It’s apparently the story of a middle-aged housewife neglected by her family. In a bid to prove that she has more than what it takes, she transforms into a model! We guess that’s the part Rekha’s looking at since there’s no denying her skill with the make-up brush! Incidentally, Rekha did something similar way back in 1988 in Rakesh Roshan’s ‘Khoon Bhari Maang’. The film was a runaway hit and we wonder whether she can repeat the magic. Moreover, Sridevi and Rekha have been very close to each other for a long time so it’s no surprise that Madam Re has been inspired by her friend. Though Indra Kumar’s possible film with Rekha is based on a Gujarati play, there are quite a few similarities in the storyline to Sridevi’s comeback film. But there is also a catch. Sri had the addition of Amitabh’s delightful cameo, which, in a Rekha film won’t possible ever!
