Jaya joins Amitabh in race for English films
Both the senior Bachchans are acting in English films this year.
The race is on between Jaya and Amitabh Bachchan to do English films this year. The Big B is already engaged doing The Last Lear by Rituporno Ghosh and Shantaram by Mira Nair.
And, close on his heels is wife Jaya who has completed 50 per cent of an English film with danseuse Mallika Sarabhai called Love Song Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow.
It is being directed by noted Bengali author-director Joyobroto Chatterjee whose The Last Train of Innocence won him the Hawthronden Fellowship.
This is Chatterjee's second feature film after Kehkeshaan in 1985 which introduced model Kitu Gidwani. "When I approached Jayaji, she had already read my books and had a fair idea how I write. She said she loved my books and would work with me,"said Chatterjee from Kolkata.
The movie spans three generations. Jaya plays the grandmother to a new Bengali actor. Mallika plays the wife of Om Puri, who is shown as Jaya's former lover.
