just heard it in yesterdays news that RamGopal Varma is going to start a new project the name isnt decided as yet but this is going to be a remake of the legendry movie Sholay...
Big B is going to be seen in the remake too but.... not as the amazing Jay... he will be playing Gabbar Singh!!!
Incidentally, when RGV approached Big B... he was shocked to say the least but when RGV told him about the role he was thrilled...
RGV says that he believe Gabbar Singh was the real hero of the movie and till date if you mention Sholay the first thing people recall is Gabbar Singh... personally i remember Big B but yes Gabbar did leave a lasting impact, the best villain to date...
the other characters are not yet decided yet but Baby B will be there in the movie too maybe playing his father's character...
im eagerly waiting for this movie....
what say guys whom do you see playing the various roles??? Basanti could be our very own Rani mukharjee and Radha could be vidya balan... for Viru i see non other then saif ali khan and Thakur... ajay devgan???

I hope that this is someone's idea of a joke, albeit not a very good one. I can't believe that anyone would even entertain the idea of screwing up the all-time greatest by remaking it. Much less, the Big B agreeing to have anything to do with the project.

Wow... Thanks for the info Preety.
BTW, did u or anyone here watched Virrudh? Am looking forward to watch this movie too as it has Bachchan as its central role. A friend told me that he has around 90% screen time in this movie...

Yup preety i just saw it in news too--
Actually, the reporter said that back in 1975 when Salim-Javed narrated the story to Big B--He wanted to play Gabbar--But he couldnt at that time--So now since he has got another opportunity--He would love to execute his wish--
Hmmm! Well the whole concept doesnt sound interesting at all--There is no point to remake a master piece--
Well Good luck to RGV--
~~ right!!! but i do want to see the remake too with big B its bound to be good... (or im biased
)
you remember the movie ramgarh ke sholey they tried to make the second part of Sholey with gabbar (the real one) coming out of the jail and all the doubles of jackie, anil kapoor, devanand etc went to fight him... that was yuck movie.... nothing can compare the real thing isnt it....

Hi,
I do not think Ramuji will make a mess of a film like Sholay and BigB will surely do justice by playing Gabbar. By the way in Viruddh he acted really differently.

I would have agreed with u Rizwan!!!!....but since the director is Ramu.....I cannot pass any comments now....I am preety sure he will represent the new version of Sholay quite innovatively......lets watch and see........we will discuss once the movie gets released... Maybe the next gen will remember BIGB as Gabbar,the way we remember Amjad

With so many prequels around at the moment like Stars Wars and Batman.
What would be interesting is that if they made a prequel to Sholay and focus on the Gabbar Singh character for eg. how he turned into a dacoit etc. What do you guys think? Any decent story lines!
About the remake of Sholay who would you have playing the main characters of Veeru, Jai, Basanti, Radha and Thakur Saab.
Let your imagination run wild and see who comes up with the best.

Remake of sholay
Sholay
it was a great film with every character contributing in it.......
I don't think its a cool idea of making sholay again
without the central characters
Amjad khan And Sanjeev kumar
but they can do one thing (if making a sequel to
sholay)
they can potray Jr Ab and Bobby deol as their sons
and Sunny deol as gabbar's son (though Big B was bachelor at the the time of his death in the film, but anything is possible na)

The rest of the cast is not yet decided.

RGV said in one of his interviews that He Does not want to do the expected.
He said that everyone expected that Abhishek would play Jai & Veeru would be played by Bobby deol or Sunny Deol.
