Mumbai: Jessica Lal refuses to die even after her brutal murder in full public glare. This time she is back in a film, which will see the talented Vidya Balan play her sister – Sabrina Lal. According to latest news, director Rajkumar Gupta, who earlier made the critically-acclaimed film, ‘Aamir’, has been planning a film on the Jessica Lal murder case titled ‘No One Killed Jessica’.
The director decided to cast Vidya after watching her powerful performance in ‘Paa’. Vidya has earlier played women centric roles in ‘Parineeta’ and ‘Halla Bol’.
Jessica’s sister Sabrina was the one who fought a terrible legal battle to get justice for her sister. Vidya confirmed the news and said, “Yes, I am playing Sabrina Lal in Rajkumar Gupta’s film. The minute I heard the role, I wanted to do it. It’s my first biographical role and a big challenge. I’ll be meeting Sabrina shortly. After ‘Paa’ and’ Ishqiya’, I need to move forward.”
Talking about the film, Rajkumar said, “I start the film in February 2010. Vidya Balan seemed like the right choice from the start. Now that I have got her for the role, the rest of the casting will be easy.”
We hope ‘No One Killed Jessica’ helps in getting justice for Jessica!
