Prosenjit to play Ashok Kumar's role in Khubsoorat remake

Popular Bengali star Prosenjit Chatterjee is stepping into the shoes of
legendary actor Ashok Kumar in the
remake of Khubsoorat.

An official remake of 1980 classic comedy
is being produced by Sonam Kapoor's sister
Rhea, and will be directed by Shashanka
Ghosh of Quick Gun Murugan fame.

"I have heard the narration and have liked
it. I would be playing a fatherly role....It is
Ashok Kumar's role from the original film,"
Prosenjit said.

"I have seen the original film and am
happy to be part of this. We are trying to
work out the dates and other things. I
think I would start shooting for it from
November," he said.

The original film was directed by
Hrishikesh Mukherjee and starred Rekha,
the late Ashok Kumar, Dina Pathak and
Rakesh Roshan.

Sonam would be reprising Rekha's role.

"My role has been changed completely
from the original. It is an interesting and
strong role," Prosenjit said.
