Bollywood's evergreen actor Anil Kapoor is all set to star in the official Hindi remake of the Oscar nominated Dutch movie Everybody's Famous (2002). The Hindi remake of the film, tentatively titled as Fanney Khan will be the directorial debut of Atul Manjrekar.
Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra will be producing this flick. The original film Everybody's Famous features Eva van der Gucht, Josse De Pauw, Thekla Reuten among others. The film speaks about a father whose dream was to become a singer and he imposes this dream on his daughter. Her repeated attempts at singing contests fail and the father-daughter plan to kidnap a pop star Debbie.
Being a musical comedy, the music plays a vital role in the film and the recordings are likely to begin this month.
