  Director Homi Adajania is better known for his innovative scripts in the industry. The latest news we heard from the filmmaker that his upcoming project 'The Fault in Our Stars' is in initial stage. Hence, he is busy in finalizing the script once it is ready.

  He said, "Yes, I have been asked to make a Hindi adaptation of the best-selling book 'The Fault In Our Stars'. As of now, it's being scripted and only after I lock the draft will we finalise the cast and decide when to shoot it," said Adajania, who has earlier helmed "Cocktail" and "Finding Fanny".

  

  He said, "I don't think it is an unusual pair. It's a fresh pairing... both actors are young and I think there is a nice organic balance between the two. It is not a remake, it is a fresh script written by Dinesh Vijan and it is his story. It is not going to go out before next October, so it is premature to discuss it now". 

  He said, "I would love to, but unfortunately the reach in English is limited in India".

  He added, "the reason that 'Finding Fanny' did well (was) because it also had the backing of a Hindi dubbed version".

  He continued, "Performing in English is very different to Hindi as the syntax is different. Hindi allows for a louder, more dramatic delivery which if done in English, will look hammy. So next time around, even if I shoot an English language film, I will shoot it dual -- in English and in Hindi".
