Jiah Khan's suicide: Actress says she will act role in film

Tejaa Deokar feels there is no need to seek permission from Jiah's family

Actress Jiah Khan's mysterious suicide that has shocked Bollywood will be made into a Marathi language film. To be called ‘Nati'’ (Actress), the film stars noted Marathi actress Tejaa Deokar playing the role of Jiah.
Without revealing too much, Tejaa said, "Yes we are making ‘Nati’ on the life of an actress who is frustrated with her career and especially her love life.
“It is a journey of a woman and the circumstances that makes her commit suicide. I have to lose a lot of weight in the first half of the film and I am rigorously working on it.
“In the second half, I need to put on weight. I am also working on the stories of different models and actress who have committed suicide in the past.”
On being asked if the film is based on the recent Jiah Khan's suicide case, Tejaa replied, "I believe performing the character of Jiah will create no controversy at all.
“Why should I bother to take permission from her mom? Had it been some great politician or someone who may have done something for our country, then I would care to seek permission.
“For example, the character of Indira Gandhi, then we would definitely have sought permission. Also, my producers will have to look into all this. As an actor, I need to just do my job.”
About Suraj Pancholi, she says, “Yes, it needs two hands to clap. While in love we cannot blame the other.”
Speaking about her own love life she says, “My man is not from the Bollywood horizon at all. But I am very lucky to have someone so understanding and trustworthy.
“But, I must confess I would never have committed suicide for any reason what-so-ever. Life is full of problems, we need to sort them out.” 
‘Nati’ is being directed by debutant Yogesh Jaadhav and is all set to hit the screens in the month of October.
Sources also claimed the director is on the hunt for an actor who looks similar to Suraj Pancholi.
