Salman Khan’s niece Alizeh Agnihotri,daughter of former actor Atul Agnihotri and Salman’s eldest sister Alvira, is all set to be launched in a remake of the Oscar-winning film CODA. The film will be directed by Vikas Bahl.
Apparently plans to launch the pretty teenager in another project has been put on hold for the CODA remake, as this is being seen as the most befitting launch pad.
CODA, a remake of the 2016 French-Belgian film La Famille Belier, tells the story of a 17-year old girl, an aspiring singer who is the only hearing member of a deaf family. All the deaf actors in CODA, and its original La famille Belier, were played by actors who are hearing impaired.
Bahl’s Hindi remake is unlikely to aspire to the original’s level of authenticity .
