Will there be a clash of the courtesans this November?

That's a question looming large in the industry circles as both Rekha and Aishwarya Rai would be seen enacting the roles of a courtesans in their forthcoming films. Agreed that Ash would be seen in 'Umrao Jaan' on November 3rd but Rekha coming on the big screen too? Now how does that happen?

Well, there is a good probability of that happening as Rekha enacts the role of a courtesan once again in a film called 'Yatra'. Directed by National award winning director Gautam Ghosh, the film boasts of other powerful performers in the form of Nana Patekar and Deepti Naval. The film is set in contemporary times though Rekha gets a chance to do some 'mujras' once again.

Now if producers decide to get innovative, they have a good date in the form of November 3rd to release their film neck to neck with 'Umrao Jaan' and encash on the clash of original v/s remade 'Umrao Jaan'.

What say?
