Rekha, Hema Malini To Share Screen

MUMBAI: Filmmaker Raj Kanwar has got the two dream girls of the 70’s Hema Malini and Rekha together for his forthcoming film Sadiyaan.

The film marks the debut of Shatrughan Sinha’s son Luv Sinha. Now, the film is complete and Raj Kanwar who feels he managed a coup by getting these South Indian beauties together says, “I always wanted to work with Hemaji and Rekhaji. I’m their biggest fan. When I started my career, they had finished their innings as leading ladies.When I was working on the script of Sadiyaan, the script required two powerful actresses who had equal, meaty roles. And I could visualise only Hemaji and Rekhaji in both the roles! I approached them respectively, and was elated when both of them signed the film! It was great to work with both of them.They were through professional, very obedient, there were no ego hassles and both of them got along like a house on fire, chatting away in Tamil during breaks!

Now the film is complete and both of them have come up with brilliant performances! It is an experience which I will always cherish.”
