SRK was in talks earlier on.

SRK is probably not going to star in this film.

Nice. Bollywood is going to ruin this one too. I can't imagine any mainstream Bollywood actor pulling off what Vijay Sethupathi did in the original.

Can't Madhavan star in it too? He's such a good actor! And we need actors & lookers like him in BW. BW will ruin this anyway. I just hope SLB doesn't pick this up or something.. Leave it to Bharadwaj

^^Ya, but I don't trust BW at all. Idk about these PH except Ambanis ofc & Neeraj Pandya is good too. Cannot comment on the South producers but since they're the original, we can hope it'll be a good film. I wish they took Madhavan though.

I just loved this movie.. I hope whoever stars in it does justice to the role. Both VS and Maddy acted so freaking well.. One of the best Kolly movies i've watched in the recent times. No romance/emotional nonsense. A sensible flick much ahead of its times.

I want Maddy and Amit Sadh here.
Maybe reverse the roles

Dub the movie. The Hindi audience might respond. I don't see any modern Bolly actor in two generations doing justice to this except Aamir.
