Amrita Rao again play for Vivah's Director 'Sooraj Barjatya'

Amrita Rao News: Amrita Rao is set to team up with one of her favourite film-maker Sooraj R Barjatya after four years.

The actor owes one of her career’s biggest hits to Sooraj who directed Amrita in Vivah in 2006.

The movie about upholding family values and the great Indian marriage also starred Shahid Kapoor and went on to become a blockbuster that launched Shahid as the next big solo star in Bollywood.

A reliable source close to the development of the film reveals, “Amrita was called by Sooraj himself who he has expressed his desire to cast her in his next that he is currently writing.

It appears that the film is being written keeping Amrita in mind as the film will revolve around her character.

It is a very strong character that the actor has to play and she is ecstatic after her phone conversation with Sooraj. They are set to have a meeting on this soon. Amrita adores Sooraj and respects him for trusting her with Vivah that really boosted her film career. She hopes to emulate the same feat with Sooraj’s forthcoming movie.”

But the most interesting news that is emerging from this development is that Amrita might again be teaming up with Shahid Kapoor for this film. Shahid has been sporadically hinted by reports that Shahid and Amrita’s relationship has become blow hot-blow cold. Some say they are estranged while some maintain they are still good friends. If the gossip turns out to be true, this movie would mark them teaming up after four years too.

“Amrita and Shahid has been quite a successful jodi in the industry having done Ishq Vishk and Vivah and both being hits. But after 2006 they haven’t worked with each other propelled gossip that they aren’t really friends anymore. But they have always been cordial whenever they have met each other and in public or social dos. If this happens, it would put rumours about their equation to rest for sure,” adds the insider.
