"While the basic idea would be the same, we've changed the characters,setting and situations. But on a cautionary note, it's better to acquire the rights and remake it your own way," Shetty pointed out.
The essence of one liners and comedy will be retained in the remake. While the original saw Utpal Dutt's daughter falling in love with Amol Palekar, the remake will see Devgn's sister falling for Bachchan.
A romantic comedy, the film will pair Devgn with Prachi Desai and Bachchan with Asin.
Ask him if his Gol Maal remake will feature his trademark action sequences, more so since Ajay is playing a wrestler and Abhishek is also getting into shape for his character, the director smiles, "Well, a few thrills are there. But the action will be different from what you've seen in Singham.But yes, there's a car chase sequence in the climax. However, it won't be anything like you've seen in my other films so far."
