Raja Bundela was a pretty talented actor with some hot roles in films like Arjun, Shola Aur Shabnam... He now plans a a film on his native Bundelkhand.

Bundela, from Bundelkhand, Madhya Pradesh, is also the president of the youth wing of the Bundelkhand Mukti Morcha and has, of recent times, being demanding a separate state.

He wanted to pick up Tejaswini Kolhapure, Padmini Kolhapure's sibling for the role. But Tejaswini preferred to be launched in her sister's next production. And so Bundela is looking for a new girl to do the role.

Bundela is pretty serious about this Bundelkhand thing. He'd been through the locality to dredge up support -- and was quite a hit there too, might we add. And a charter he'd drawn up then suggested the Bundelkhandis could even block access to Khajuraho -- which falls in the area -- to highlight their problems.

Seeing how terribly serious the threat is, the film should make the government sit up whenever it is released, we guess.
