And this remake of a Malayalam blockbuster will be backed by a South megastar.

According to Pinkvilla, none other than Prithviraj himself will bankroll this venture with Karan Johar.

Kumar will reportedly essay the role of superstar Hareendran while Hashmi will play the role of Motor Vehicle Inspector Kuruvila. Director Raj Mehta, who had previously delivered Akshay Kumar starrer Good Newwz, will helm this remake. When Karan Johar reportedly approached the makers for a remake, Prithviraj was quick to back the venture.

Hareendran, who is a motorhead loses his driver's license, and he meets the motor vehicle inspector Kuruvila to get a new one.
