OSO- The story revealed...
‘Om Shanti Om’ is an unusual love story that spans 30 years in time. A part of the story is set in 1977. Expectedly, Farah Khan’s fixation for the 70s and the fashion statements of that era continues in OSO.
The film has Shah Rukh Khan playing Om Prakash Makhija, a junior artist in film industry in the 1970s. He harbors a dream of becoming a big superstar someday. More than this dream he harbors love for someone special.
Deepika Padukone plays Shantipriya, a superstar of the 70s. Although she has fame and adulation of her fans, she longs for love in her life. She longs for someone who would love her from the bottom of his heart.
Om is not just a fan of Shanti, he loves her deep within. She inspires him and instills him with love and hope. He watches her from afar. But then, one day…
A small incident brings them together. Call it luck, divine intervention or just plain coincidence. When it happened, Om was witnessing the beginning of his love story.
But for some love stories, one lifetime is not enough. Om and Shanti’s story is one such. Life and love would betray them both. But they would meet again in another life.
The story of OSO apparently has a reincarnation angle.
The second part of the story is set in 2007. SRK plays actor Om Kapoor and Deepika Padukone plays Sandy.
OSO is the first movie for which SRK has gone bare-chested. SRK had promised Farah Khan during the making of Main Hoon Na that if he ever goes bare-chested it would be for her film. And to look good while bare-chested on the screen, SRK worked hard on his body and developed six-pack abs that are quite visible.
‘Om Shanti Om’ has been made under the banner of Red Chillies Entertainment, which is SRK’s company. The film has music by Vishal-Shekhar and lyrics by Gulzar. Shirish Kunder, Farah’s husband, is the editor.
OSO is set to release on November 9, 2007.
