Karan signs Mohit for the remake of The Intouchables
Karan Johar has joined hands with director MohitSuri for the remake of the popular French comedy drama, The Intouchables. Karan acquired the rights of the film through his friend Guneet Monga, who negotiated the deal with the international studio. Speaking to us from London, he said, "It's a film I loved and wanted to make and Guneet went to great lengths to acquire the rights for us."

Getting Mohit on board was an f instant decision for Karan, who says, "I've admired his work since the beginning of his career. He has f a way of telling stories in a heartfelt manner. This was a perfect opportunity for us to collaborate. I l have a very warm personal relationship with him and hope that professionally too, we will have a strong and long association." Says Mohit, "Karan and I found common ground much before Aashiqui 2 released. When most people weren't even giving the film importance, we started meeting and found a connect. The Intouchables is one of the loveliest films I've seen and both of us are sold on the story. It is full of emotions and our remake will have a lot more tears, drama and fun."

While speculation is rife about the cast, Mohit asserts the film is still being scripted and casting decisions haven't been taken yet.

I think its french movie , of black nurse guy who is taking care of a paralysed guy. Its not a gay story ... its male bonding movie.
