The wait to know the next film which has managed to convince the youngest film star in India to say Yes is over.

Darsheel Safry will be seen doing the central role of Ali in the Indian remake of the internationally acclaimed cult Iranian film 'Children Of Heaven'.

The original film was directed by Majid Majidi and was nominated for the best foreign film category of the Academy Awards in 1998.

The remake will be directed by ace film maker Priyadarshan and produced by Percept Picture Company.

The film company was adamant of getting Darsheel for the lead role of the film as they felt only he can do justice to the most important character.

The movie takes the viewers for an adventure of Ali and his sister Zahra filled with childish innocence triggered off by a lost pair of shoes.

People who have seen 'Children Of Heaven' will never be able to forget the movie as it is told in a very simple way through which every one can relate emotionally to the story.

However certain changes in the original story and situations will be made to suit the sentiments of the Indian film lovers.
