We were the first ones to tell you thatVarun Dhawan and Sidharth Malhotra might be Rohit Shetty and Karan Johar's choices to play Ram Lakhan in the film's remake scheduled to go on floors next year. And now, it's final that the two have indeed been cast asbrothers in the film.

Varun will be essaying Lakhan, originally played by Anil Kapoor whereas Sidharth will be playing Jackie Shroff's Ram in the remake. Coincidentally, Jackie had exclusively told dna that he wanted Sidharth to fill in his shoes because he thought he was perfect for the role. Seems Jackie's wish has been heard. But Anil wanted Ranveer Singh to be cast as Lakhan and we guess, that ain't happening as of now.

What brought about the casting? KJo, of course! Karan has been instrumental in giving both Varun and Sid a big ticketBollywood break and has also ensured that he keeps supporting them in whichever ways possible. While Sid is doing his third film - Brothers - under Karan's banner, Varun too has signed on a third film - Shuddhi - with Dharma. If the casting falls in place, the Ram Lakhanremake will be both Sidharth and Varun's fourth film with the production house.

It will also be second time that Varun and Rohit will be teaming up, after Dilwalewhich is scheduled to release during Christmas week this year. So are you ready to see the SOTY boys team up again? We surely cant wait. The barometric levels have just shot up!
