'Arjun' was a smash hit when it was released. And now it will be remade. The movie will be produced by Shivam Nair, it is rumoured that Nikhil Dwivedi will play the role originally played by Sunny Deol. This is the same Nikhil who made his debut in 'My Name is Anthony Gonsalves', directed by E. Niwas. This transition from Anthony to Arjun is exciting for the young actor, whose aim is to be the next Shah Rukh Khan. He has two more films in hand, although he does not want to talk about them yet.

Shivam Nair is prese, adminntly involved in Asthavinayak's Gujarati play, 'Maharathi'. He says, "Yes, it is true that I am producing the remake of 'Arjun'. Actually, it was Nikhil, who gave me the idea. I am sitting with Pawan and rewriting the story to make it more relevant today's time, and Anurag Kashyap is writing the dialogues." He adds that he does not want to say anything else, because the rights of the movie lies with Shah Rukh Khan's company, Red Chillies Entertainment. He omits any mention of the cast, however.
