Tamil actor-director Raghava Lawrence is all set to foray into Bollywood with the Hindi remake of Kanchana, a horror-comedy about a ghost possessing the hero to avenge the wrongdoers. The film stars Akshay Kumar in the lead and the actor started shooting for the film in Mumbai, a few days ago. Add to this, his co-star from Good News, Kiara Advani, has also been finalised for the film. The stunning actress recently commenced the shoot for the film and sharing a picture of herself with a clapboard, which read as Laaxmi Bomb, thereby revealing the title of the much-anticipated film.

Amidst all this, we now hear that Amitabh Bachchan would be joining the film's cast as well and according to a report in a portal, he will be seen playing the role of the transgender from the first part. For the unversed, Sarathkumar played the role of a transgender named Kanchana in the original Tamil version and it would be a delight to watch Big B in a never seen before avatar. However, the makers are yet to give an official confirmation on the same.
Meanwhile, talking about the film, filmmaker Raghav had earlier said, "Akshay Kumar and I have been in talks for a year and a half toying with the idea of remaking Kanchana in Hindi. And after several discussions, it has come to shape finally. I am improvising the script to suit the present times, Akshay's image and also Bollywood audience tastes." Well, we cannot wait to know more details about Laaxmi Bomb.
