Barkha Sengupta’s NO to work with Shaheer Sheikh for Mughal-E-Azam’s TV remake!

Barkha Bisht, Shaheer Sheikh

Television is going to witness the TV remake of Bollywood's classic film Mughal-E-Azam. The role of Salim will be essayed by TV's favourite actor, Shaheer Sheikh.

Lately, actress Barkha Sengupta was approached by the makers of the magnum-opus to play the role of Jodha Bai, who was Salim's mother. The actress even gave a look test and was quite kicked about the show, but turned it down later, when she got to know that she will have to play Shaheer Sheikh's mother.

Barkha has previously essayed a mother on-screen, so she does not have a problem in doing that again. She just didn't want to play a mother to a 34-year-old man, when she herself is 38-year-old.

When questioned to comment on the matter, Barkha revealed a tabloid, "I do not want to play a mother to such a big boy because I don't think I would physically look the age and thus, would not be able to justify the character."

Presently, Barkha is a mother of a 6-year-old girl in real.
