Anil Ravipudi Set to Reimagine Sankranthi in Hindi With THIS Star!
When asked who he would like to cast, Ravipudi gave a response that delighted fans: Salman Khan. He explained, "The subject suits Salman perfectly.
Blockbuster director Anil Ravipudi, who recently delivered a massive hit with Sankranthiki Vastunnam, is riding high on its success. The film, which grossed over ₹200 crore, has cemented its place as one of the biggest hits of the year. With Bollywood increasingly looking to adapt successful regional films, Ravipudi was asked in a recent interview about his plans for a Hindi remake of the movie.
When asked who he would like to cast, Ravipudi gave a response that delighted fans: Salman Khan. He explained, "The subject suits Salman perfectly. He’s known for family-oriented movies like Hum Aapke Hain Koun, Hum Saath Saath Hain, and the record-breaking Bajrangi Bhaijaan. If he does this remake, it will undoubtedly be a blockbuster." Ravipudi's vision to blend Salman’s signature style with the heartwarming family drama of Sankranthiki Vastunnam has sparked excitement.
However, Salman Khan’s recent film, Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, didn’t perform as expected at the box office. A remake of the 2014 Tamil hit Veeram, the film starred Salman alongside Pooja Hegde and Venkatesh but failed to resonate with audiences. Despite this, Ravipudi remains confident that the remake of Sankranthiki Vastunnam could turn things around for the superstar, owing to its universal appeal and strong narrative.
If this collaboration comes to fruition, it could mark a fresh chapter for both Ravipudi and Salman Khan. While the official confirmation is awaited, fans are already buzzing about the potential of this exciting project. Only time will tell if this dream pairing will translate into another blockbuster for Bollywood!
