Stepmom titled We Are Family

After mulling over the title of his Hindi version of Chris Columbus’ 1998 comedy drama Stepmom for a long time, Bollywood filmmaker Karan Johar has finally decided to go with the name We Are Family.

"Ok guys…here goes the title of our official Stepmom adaptation We Are Family…will post the release date in a few days," Karan revealed through a post on micro-blogging site Twitter.

The 38-year-old filmmaker had promised fans that he would announce the name of the film on Twitter first, and he kept his word.

The movie is a heartwarming tale about a terminally ill divorcee who has to accept the new woman in her ex-husband’s life as the stepmother of her kids and the problems they face to find a common ground of understanding.

While it was earlier being called Love You Maa, Karan was still on the lookout for a suitable title and had even asked his Twitter followers to suggest one.

"We Are Family", directed by Siddharth Malhotra, features Kajol, Kareena Kapoor and Arjun Rampal. It is expected to release in October.
