Bollywood has made a Hindi remake of The Fault in Our Stars, which nobody asked for. Well, the makers say it is an adaptation of the book by John Green and not a remake. The movie features Sushant Singh Rajput playing the male lead. The young girl who screamed Bloody Mary at Ranbir Kapoor at the end of Rockstar because Nargis Fakhri died, plays the female lead. She is Sanjana Sanghi. In case you are from the tribe that is looking forward to watching the movie, titled Dil Bechara, here is some good news. Dil Bechara's release date has been announced and it will be opening in theatres on November 29 this year.

Dil Bechara has been directed by Mukesh Chhabra. The dude has been a well-known casting director in the past and is one of the persons whose name cropped up in the 2018's #MeToo takedown in India.  His name was cleared by an internal enquiry by the production house, Fox Star Studios. Mukesh had also denied the "unsubstantiated wild anonymous allegations" in a letter posted on his Twitter handle.

If Dil Bechara doesn't ring a bell, you might remember it as Kizie aur Manny. The movie's title was changed from Kizie aur Manny to Dil Bechara for the reasons best known to the production.

Earlier, Saif Ali Khan was roped in for a cameo in Dil Bechara. The actor shot for his brief appearance in Paris with Sanjana and Sushant. If you have read the book or watched the Hollywood movie, you can assume that Saif would play the alcoholic author that the main characters are a fan of and track him down.

Again, Sushant Singh Rajput and Sanjana Sanghi's Dil Bechara is scheduled to release on November 29, 2019. The movie has been backed by Fox Star Studios and is an adaptation of the book The Fault in Our Stars.
