Austen goes Bollywood... again

AustenBlog informs me that Aisha, a Bollywood film adaptation of Jane Austen's Emma starring Sonam Kapoor (left), will be coming out this August. I'm a big fan of Kandukondain Kandukondain, the 2000 Tamil musical inspired by Sense and Sensibility*, so I'm hoping this will be just as fun.

*Aishwarya Rai's performance was almost enough to overcome my dislike of the Marianne character. Not quite, of course, but she came closer than anyone else has ever been able to.
