We all know Vishal Bhardwaj’s fascination for Shakespeare and how he has adapted three of his plays into films. His Maqbool was an adaptation of Macbeth, Omkara of Othello and Shakespeare’s toughest play, Hamlet, is being adapted into Haider. Since the times films have been made in the world, good books and bestsellers have been the favourite source for film scripts.
