“Ao Jiao & Pian Jian,” the Chinese remake of the online novel “Pride and Prejudice,” would premiere in China on April 21. Among the stars of the film is Dilraba Dilmurat, one of the most popular actresses on television who stood in for AngelaBaby as co-host of “Hurry Up, Brother,” Season 5 when the Chinese actress gave birth to her first baby.

Other stars of "Ao Jiao & Pian Jan" are Zhang Yunlong and Gao Weiguang. The movie is about the romance of an online novelist with an heir of a wealthy family business, China Daily reported.

Dilraba’s Career Path

Besides pinch-hitting for AngelaBaby in the Chinese version of the popular Korean variety show “Running Man,” 25-year-old Dilraba Dilmurat starred in the 2013 TV series “Anarhan” which was her ticket to fame. Her acting career was further boosted by Dilraba’s starring role in “Eternal Love,” based on another online novel, “The Lives Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Blossoms.”

Dilraba starred in “Pretty Li Hui Zhen,” the Chinese remake of the 2015 hit Korean drama “She Was Pretty.” In early 2017, “Pretty Li Hui Zhen” was the number one TV drama on its time slot, Soompi reported.

Another Chinese Remake of Korean Drama

The drama series revolved around the love story between a former beauty and her childhood friend whose fortunes reversed. Years of a hard life made Li Hui Zhen look haggard, while it was the other way around for her short, chubby and unpopular childhood friend Bai Hao Yu, played by Peter Sheng, who has become handsome and successful as an adult.

Bai looks for Li Hui, but because of her current physical appearance, Li Hui sends Xia Qiao, played by Sierra Li, who is her stylish roommate and best friend, to instead meet with Bai. However, Li becomes an intern at a fashion magazine with Bai as her boss, so she has to hide again her true identity.
