After tickling the funny bone of the audiences, ‘Dostana’ duo Abhishek Bachchan and John Abraham are teaming up again, but this time for an action film, which is a remake of 2012 Tamil hit ‘Vettai’.
The South film was written and directed by N Linguswamy and starred Arya, R Madhavan, Sameera Reddy and Amala Paul. Earlier it was reported that Linguswami himself would direct the film and it would star Shahid Kapoor in the lead. But now Linguswami has been replaced by Abbas-Mustan.
“We will direct the film (‘Vettai’). To suit the sensibilities of mass audience here we have made certain changes,” the director duo said.
“To see Abhishek and John together on screen is a treat for cine goers,” Abbas-Mustan said.
The original revolves around two brothers – the elder being sensitive to violence and the younger being a jobless rogue. After the death of their father, a police officer, the elder brother takes on the same job.
How the brothers become a target of two gangs and how they protect their families forms the rest of the story.
