Rani Mukerji and Saif Ali Khan to work some magic

The dream pair Rani Mukerji and Saif Ali Khan are to work some magic on the silver screen in their latest movie together, “Thoda Pyar, Thoda magic’ being directed by Kunal Kohli.

Rani-saif

This is the third movie that they are starring together after the super hit Hum Tum (directed by Kunal Kohli himself) and Tara Rum pam ( a downer).

This is Kohli’ second movie after Hum Tum and Fanaah both hits at the box office

Thoda Pyar Thoda magic is slated to release in June with a music release in May. It is aimed at children. It features Rani playing the role of a fairy. The film also has four kids in lead characters and is thought to be in the lines of ‘Mr. India`, `Krissh` and `Koi Mil Gaya

It is rumored to be inspired by two Hollywood flicks, the classic Mary Poppins and the recent nanny McPhee. The story line is- Saif is saddled with 4 orphans who come to live with him and things don’t go well. Now Rani is a fairy who comes to their rescue and changes their heart and lives.

Kohli said, “When we encounter problems, we feel the need for someone to come and help us! We want a magic to happen. We need an angel! Thus my film is called what it is called. What inspired me to make the film was the fact that families are not made by birth but by love and this is the love that the characters in my film share.”

He added, “Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic is not a fairy tale as the family in the film is very real. The kids are not filmy with gel in their hair! In fact three of the four kids have never even faced the camera before! They are like the Mr. India children. I was inspired by Mr. India and it was not a children’s film.”
About the young artists in the film director of the film Kohli says “They are very normal kids and they have beautifully performed. Their performances have matched up to Saif and Rani’s performances”.
The lovely Amisha Patel is also part of the project and is doing a dance number.

However, Kunal insists that the song is a beautiful and poetic song and that Amisha is doing a guest appearance in the film and not an item number.
