MUMBAI: Bollywood film-maker Sanjay Gupta is set to adapt the book Vine of Desire into a film. The book is a sequel to the bestseller Sister of My Heart, written by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni.
Gupta has roped in Pooja Bhatt to direct the film which will be made under the banner of White Feather Films. The movie, which is currently under the pre-production stage, will go on floors by the end of this year.
Also, with Vine of Desire, Gupta for the first time will be making a movie that is not a dark action packed thriller.
In Vine of Desire, the story revolves around the lives of two half sisters Anju and Sudha who, after years of living separately, meet in America far away from their hometown Kolkata. Anju and Sudha rekindle the sibling affection again and provide each other emotional forbearance.
