Dino to be reborn as Himesh!

Midday:Shaheen Parkar

Dino Morea flew off to South Africa late Tuesday night to join the cast of Satish Kaushik’s Karzzzz, based on Subhash Ghai’s ’80s film. The actor has been pencilled in to play the character of Ravi Verma, essayed by Raj Kiran, in Ghai’s film. Dino will star opposite Urmila Matondkar (who essays Simi’s role).

B-Town buzz had several names being tossed around for this role in the T-Series project. It was finally decided that Dino would star as the Mr Moneybags who is reborn as a singer, a role being enacted by Himesh Reshammiya.

Under wraps

Says an insider, “The producers want to keep Dino’s character under wraps for now. They are giving him a distinct look. As a result, everything is hush-hush for the moment.”

It is learnt that Dino’s character will be an extremely suave, sophisticated character. Though the character gets killed in the first half itself, he will keep making appearances throughout the movie, as he continues to haunt his killers.

Born again

Released in 1980, Subhash Ghai’s Karz had Sir Juda crave a sprawling estate owned by Ravi Verma (Raj Kiran), the son of the estate owner Rani Ma. Juda manages to trap Ravi when he marries his lover Kamini (Simi Garewal) who has been planted by Sir Juda to kill him and inherit the property. She succeeds. But Ravi is then reborn as Monty, a popular singer.
