The million dollar baby

She has agreed to do yet another Hindi film called ‘Fever’ because she fell in love with the story. The movie is being produced by Ravi Agrawal and directed by Rajeev Jhaveri.
When the script was narrated to Barbara Mori, she loved it and is quite excited to do the film as the tone of the film is completely different from that of ‘Kites’.

In ‘Fever’, Barbara plays the character of a linguist who is a second generation Briton. What drew her most to the script was the intoxicating interpretation of love by writer-director Rajeev Jhaveri.

‘Fever’ will be shot in the virgin locations of Cornwall in England in the months of June and July.  It is the classic English landscape — cultured British houses, cobbled stone streets, mountains emanating from the sea and the vibrant colours — that makes it so special.

Besides Barbara, ‘Fever’ will also star another Indian heroine. Ravi Agrawal, who has earlier produced films like ‘Radio’ and Deadline — Sirf 24 Ghante, is certain that the audience is going to accept Barbara in this role.

Rajeev Jhaveri had also directed an award-winning short film called ‘Cold Meat’, which was showcased at the international film festivals in Greece and Australia. He was also the writer of Kuch To Hai (produced by Ekta Kapoor) and UTV film Dhoondte Reh Jaoge.

Reportedly, Ravi has signed Barbara for a whopping $300,000.
