Bollywood has always been open to south remakes. Reports suggesting AR Murugadoss’s Tamil directorial venture Kaththi will be remade in Hindi with either Salman Khan or Akshay Kumar reprising the role of Vijay has been doing the rounds for quite some time now. After Murugadoss moved on to his woman-centric film Akira with Sonakshi Sinha, the remake of Kaththi was said to be put to hold.
Now that the Ghajini director is about to wrap up his Hindi project, reports about Kaththi’s remake are surfacing once again. We recently wrote that Chiranjeevi’s milestone 150th T’town film is likely to be a remake of Kaththi, which will be directed by VV Vinayak. Similarly, speculations run high that Murugadoss who had collaborated with Akshay Kumar for the film Holiday that is itself a remake of the director’s blockbuster film Thuppaki, will soon start the B’town version of Kaththi. Close sources say that he would restrict his role only as a producer of the film along with controversial banner Lyca Productions and he is roping in one of his associates from Hindi film industry to direct the movie.
