Aishwarya to play Hema Malini in 'Satte Pe Satta' remake

As per the latest reports Sanjay Dutt who is producing the new version of the1982 blockbuster 'Satte Pe Satta' is very keen to rope in Aishwarya Rai to reprise the role that was initially played by Hema Malini.

sanjay is however adamant that only Ash fits the role but reportedly, Aishwarya is playing hard to get for the schedule of the film. It has been about two months now but she is yet to give a definite answer.

A source informed, "Soham has given her a two-and-half hour narration of the script. She seemed interested and promised to get back. But after that, she has still not given a confirmed response."

The source further added, "It's time that Aishwarya clearly tells Sanjay and Soham if she is interested in doing the film or not. Only then can they arrange the dates of every other actor in the film. Sanjay and Soham are very much keen to have her on board." Apparently, Dutt is in a tight situation currently, as he doesn't want to offend Mrs. Rai Bachchan by approaching any other actress unless and until she turns down the offer.

Meanwhile, Bipasha Basu has been roped in to essay the crippled character of Seema that was played in the original by actress Ranjeeta and Arshad Warsi would be playing one of the seven brothers in the flick.
