Ritesh Deshmukh was finalised for Sunil Dutt's role and Paresh Rawal in Mehmood's role. The film had got stuck even before taking off after Sanjay Dutt's date dairy bungled up.

But now according to our sources, Sanjay Dutt has given the makers a go ahead and the shooting is about to commence from early 2009. Neeraj Vora shall be writing and directing this remake.

But the only glitch now remains is finding a suitable lead actress to reprise the role of sensous Saira Banu. There have been a few top names discussed but again their date problem is being a hurdle.
