Mr Mehta, who is awaiting the release of Omerta, starring Rajkummar Rao, said that he had a film for Sridevi but he could not approach the in time. "There will never be another Sridevi. I was about to approach her for a film. That film will now be dedicated to her. If it finds an actor. I will always regret that I didn't approach her and could not make a movie with her. But I will make a film on her," he told IANS. Sridevi died by accidently drowning in a hotel bathtub in Dubai on February 24.
Hansal Mehta, while speaking to journalists became introspective and assured that he will make the film. However, the Aligarh director did not share the details of the project. "It will be made.
