Ajay Devgn, Farhan Akhtar and Sanjay Dutt
all three had a film release in September
2017 and all these movies had a
disappointing run at the box office. While
Ajay's Baadshaho opened well but then
couldn't sustain, Farhan's Lucknow Central
and Sanjay's Bhoomi flopped miserably. And
now all three of them are set to collaborate.
The film will be produced by Ajay Devgn
while Farhan Akthar and Sanjay Dutt will be
acting in it. Nishikant Kamat, who made the
successful Ajay Devgn-starrer Drishyam, will
be directing it.
Now it has come to light that this particular
film is a remake of the 2014 National
Award-winning Tamil black comedy-thriller,
Jigarthanda. The title of the film is inspired
by a cold drink available in Madurai, Tamil
Nadu where the film was set in. It was the
story of an aspiring filmmaker who, after
being thrown out of a reality TV show,
decides to make a film on real-life gangster.
Rang De Basanti actor Siddharth played the
role of the aspiring filmmaker while the
goon was essayed by Bobby Simha. Bobby
won the National Award for this film along
with Vivek Harshan for Best Editing. There
were several other characters in the film
and it remains to be seen who gets to play
them in the Hindi version. Actress Lakshmi
Menon played Siddharth's love interest and
a popular Bollywood actress is expected to
step into her shoes.
Incidentally, Ajay Devgn-Nishikant Kamat's
Drishyam was also a Southern remake of
the same name and became quite a big hit.
It remains to be seen if Jigarthanda remake
also achieves similar kind of critical and
commercial success.
