Lokesh Kanagaraj seems to be the most sought-after filmmaker in Tamil cinema right now. The director, who is currently making ‘Master’ starring Vijay, is all set to foray into Bollywood soon, with the Hindi remake of Karthi-starrer Kaithi.
Sources said that he would be helming the Hindi version which will be produced by Dream Warrior Pictures and Reliance Entertainment. It is said that shooting for the movie would start once works on ‘Master’ are completed.
Meanwhile, confirming the Hindi remake of ‘Kaithi’, Shibasish Sarkar, Group CEO, Reliance Entertainment said, “Kaithi is a gripping thriller and a tribute to all the celebrated cops-and-criminals actioners you can think of. And yet it is like none you’ve ever seen. I really look forward to this collaboration and coming together with a great creative team that would do true justice to the film’s Hindi remake.”
SR Prabhu of Dream Warrior Pictures said in a statement, “We’re delighted to join hands with Reliance Entertainment for the Bollywood remake. This high-octane film will surely entertain the audience pan India.” The movie, which hit the screens for Deepavali, emerged one of the biggest hits of 2019.
