Vishal Bharadwaj is known for his edgy and rustic movies. Time and again, he pushes his boundaries and presents something simply mindblowing in his films. While we are used to all the jazz and rustic pizzazz in his films, little did we expect to hear him say stuff that would be simply mindblowing!

As per a recent quote stated by IANS, “I wanted to work with Uma Thurman and Scarlett Johansson as sisters in the film as it would have looked so amazing to see them speaking Rajasthani in the film, but sadly, they don't know how to speak Rajasthani.” Wow, hats off to Bharadwaj's vivid imagination. He also said that he wanted new people to be part of his cast because of the kind of commitment the film requires.

He said, “I wanted to cast new people in this film because the kind of commitment I was seeking in this film would have been given to me by new actors only.” The story of Pataakha is based on real-life incidents. “This film is a biopic as a writer of 'Do Behnein' Charan Singh Pathik has two brothers who got married to two sisters who used to fight a lot with each other and they ended up marrying in the same home. For many years, I have been working with stars, so I felt so liberated after making this film with comparatively new cast,” concluded the filmmaker.

Starring Dangal girl Sanya Malhotra and Radhika Madan (making her Bollywood debut), the story revolves around the lives of two sisters who just can't get along with each other! Comedian Sunil Grover is also part of the cast and plays a rather pivotal role. The film will be released on September 28, 2018.
