Here’s an exciting new development on Hrithik Roshan’s ‘desi’ Rambo remake. Reports have been doing the rounds that the Bollywood hunk has been roped in to star in the Hollywood remake of the hit franchise ‘Rambo’.
Hrithik took to his social networking handle on Thursday afternoon, to comment on the reports, and surprisingly didn't have much to say. The actor shared a newspaper clipping of the story and said, “Lovely.”
Reports doing the rounds stated that director Sidharth Anand, who directed Hrithik in ‘Bang Bang’- the Bollywood remake of ‘Knight and Day’, has bought the remake rights of ‘Rambo’, and is in talks with Hrithik for the leading role in the film.
While there is no doubt that Hrithik matches up to Sylvester Stallone’s ‘Rambo’ physique, fans of the Hollywood franchise worry if the remake would stay true to its ‘political connotations’.
However, it’ll be months before we see Hrithik put on his army uniform and head to the jungle for the project as he is currently tied up with his ‘Kaabil’ shoot. Hrithik will begin shooting for the Sanjay Gupta's romantic tale later this month.
