The original, featuring Vishnu Unnikrishnan and Prayaga Martin in the lead roles, was a comedy of errors about a former child artist who wants to make it big in the Malayalam film industry. The remake will feature a ‘popular television anchor’ as the male lead, the report says.
The makers are hoping to shoot the film in Pollachi, in order to retain the small town setting of the original film.
An official announcement regarding cast and crew is expected soon.
