Sonam Kapoor will be next seen essaying air-hostess Neerja
Bhanot, who lost her life trying to save passengers from armed terrorists
during a hijack crisis in Neerja and we recently learned that Bhanot's family
did not charge the producers anything for the rights to the story.
A source revealed, ''When the idea of making a film on this
particular case hit the makers, they immediately got in touch with Neerja
Bhanot's family who reside in Chandigarh. The makers met Neerja's mother and
her two brothers to discuss what they had in mind. After sharing the idea,
Neerja's brother just had one request, they did not ask for any money to
purchase the right of the subject. Infact the family only said that to keep the
honour of Neerja intact while the filming of the movie!.''
"We are all touched by Neerja's family's gesture (of
not asking for any money). We have all given more than our 100% to live up to
their expectations, and do full justice to Neerja's story,'' tells director Ram
Madhwani.
