Sonakshi Sinha has started shooting for Ittefaq, a remake of BR Chopra's eponymous 1969 production that was directed by Yash Chopra. The film is being helmed by Chopra's grandson, Abhay.
But not many would know that Sonakshi's father, Shatrughan Sinha, was the first choice for the original film, which eventually starred Rajesh Khanna. Shatrughan couldn't take it up due to date issues. Says Sonakshi, "It feels like life has come a full circle. I didn't even know dad was offered Ittefaq till I signed it (the remake)."
Shatrughan is thrilled that his daughter is part of the film. "When he heard about it, he was happy. It's a great role." There's another connect between the Sinhas and BR Chopra's banner. Sonakshi's mother, Poonam's second film as actress, Aadmi Aur Insaan (1969), under the same production.
