Bollywood actor Ajay Devgn has announced that they have started shooting his new film ‘Bholaa’, a remake of 2019’s Tamil hit ‘Kaithi’.
Written and directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, the original film revolved around an ex-convict (played by Karthi) who decides to meet his daughter for the first time after being released from prison but gets caught in a face-off between police and drug mafia, PTI reported from Mumbai.
The Hindi version of ‘Kaithi’ is helmed by Dharmendra Sharma, who has served as an editor on many films of Devgn’s like ‘Son of Sardaar’, ‘Shivaay’, and ‘Bhuj: The Pride of India’, among others. The upcoming film also features Tabu.
The official Twitter account of AjayDevgn FFilms shared the news: “Excited to announce our next Film! Shoot begins #Bholaa @ajaydevgn #Tabu @dharmendraedt @sandeep_kewlani @KumarMangat @Meena_Iye @AamilKeeyanKhan #AnkushSingh #Shridhar @aseematographer @DaanishGandhi @sadhwanisam”.
