Pradeep Sarkar may have parted ways with his mentor Vinod Chopra but he seems to be networking fast-n-furious in his new camp…The Chopra Camp….Oops…It’s the other Chopra….Yash Chopra.It is being said in the trade circles that Sarkar has roped in the triumvirate of Bachchans (Amitabh, Jaya and Abhishek to star in his next film being produced by Yashraj Films). The soft spoken and genial Pradeep Sarkar is not willing to admit it nor does he wish to say anything about the movie.

The film tentatively stars Saif Ali Khan, Rani Mukherjee and Vidya Balan. It also remains to be seen if Big B, Vidya Balan and Saif star in Pradeep’s movie then will it strain their relationship with Vinod Chopra camp. Saif did ‘Parineeta’ and the yet to be released ‘Eklavya’. Amitabh Bachchan considers ‘Eklavya’ may be do a ‘Black’ for him while Vidya owes her entire filmography (‘Parineeta’, ‘Lage Raho Munnabhai’ and the forthcoming ‘Eklavya’ to Vinod Chopra).

Strange are the ways of Bollywood. Once-upon-a-time friends turn enemies with changing equations. People say that Aamir Khan doesn’t have too many friends in the industry but his formula of being committed to a banner or director till the making or release of a film brings in more transparency. He doesn’t say one thing and does another. It’s time the film industry learnt a few more things from this Khan other than doing less-n-quality work and high levels of professionalism.
