A few days back, news had it that Varun Dhawan has been approached to play the lead in the Hindi remake of Telugu super hit film, ‘Arjun Reddy’. It was reported that Varun will have to lose some weight as he will be playing the role of an alcoholic and the movie will be produced by Sajid Nadiadwala. But according to the latest news, Arjun Kapoor will now lead the film. Arjun, in the past, has done dark roles and the makers are sure that he will even pull this role with ease. Talking about it, an insider stated to a daily, "Yes, it's true. Though it has taken three-four months of continuous and tireless efforts, the rights have worked out. Murad Khetani (producer) has officially bagged it but Arjun too put in his share of efforts to ensure that the rights came through."
The source went on to add, "The movie will be like ‘Rockstar’ meets ‘Dev D’. Also, since the film’s rights have been bought at a high price and it’s not going to be a typical masala potboiler, Arjun doesn’t want to overburden the project with his fee. He doesn’t want the budget to become an impediment, and instead aims to see a quality film minus any compromises."
There are chances that the original film’s director (Sandeep Vanga) will helm this version too, but all such details including when the film goes on the floor will be decided upon when the makers and Arjun meet later this month or early on in February.
