While Sonam Kapoor was grabbing the spotlight for playing the lead in the remake of 'Khubsoorat', we now hear that it is not Sonam but Kirron Kher who is playing Rekha's role.

According to sources, Sonam plays the daughter of the character that Rekha played in the original.

It was also said that Rekha was approached to play the character she had played in the original, however, for reasons best known to her, she turned down the offer to play Sonam's mother. 

So now, the part originally played by Rekha has gone to Kirron Kher. 

"Well, Kirronji plays a character named Manju after Rekhaji's character in Khubsoorat. That's all I am going to reveal right now," Sonam told a leading daily.
