Buzz is that it's a race between the two actors to play the titular role in the Bollywood remake of Mohanlal's recent hit.

If 52-year-old Malayalam star Mohanlal can play the title role in Casanovva, there's little that can keep our Bollywood superstars from doing the same. Now buzz is that Aamir Khan or Ajay Devgn might be stepping into Mohanlal's shoes for the Hindi remake of the film.

The film incidentally is being sold as the most expensive movie to be made in Kerala. The remake rights of the Mohanlal-Shriya Saran starrer that released two weeks ago is apparently said to have been sold for a record-breaking amount.


Who will it be?
Says director Roshan Andrews of the original film, "Even when we were writing the film we thought it was a perfect script for a Hindi film. It's got all the elements for a masala movie. I cannot reveal the actor's names right now, but it is a big star. Otherwise it won't do justice to Lal's role in the film."

Shifting base
Interestingly, though the rights have been sold to producer Ketan Shah, Andrews will be directing the Bollywood remake as well. He adds, "Kerala will always remain my base and drifting to Bollywood will only expand my horizons. I am doing this because it's my film. I won't be keen on directing in Hindi otherwise."


Going big
The film, which released in Kerala this month, did not see the initial numbers, and was initially panned. But it has now gone on to take the box office by storm.

Now the makers are planning to remake it on a much larger scale than the Malayalam film. The producers are set to conduct a location hunt next month in US, Argentina and South Africa.
