After 'Thadam', Sidharth Malhotra roped in for the Hindi remake of Allu Arjun’s Telugu blockbuster 'DJ'?

While Sidharth Malhotra is awaiting the release of his next film Shershaah, a media report suggests the actor is in talks with the maker of a Telugu super hit film for its Hindi remake. A source reportedly informed an entertainment portal that there is a possibility that Sidharth will get the opportunity to step into the shoes of Allu Arjun. They mentioned that Sidharth is in talks for being a part of the Hindi adaptation of Allu Arjun’s Telugu blockbuster, DJ (Duvvada Jagannadham).

Unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, they were not able to lock the deal. Since then, the makers and Sidharth Malhotra have constantly been in touch and when the film is all set to be remade in Hindi, it will star Sidharth Malhotra as the leading star. The source also claimed that Sidharth himself loves the part because it's a good mix of comedy and action. Also, after doing Marjaavaan, he's looking forward to portraying such roles.

Initially, there were rumours that this film was going to be shot with Nikkhil Advani and Milap Zaveri but the maker of the film, Dil Raju did not wish to sell the rights of their film to anyone. Instead, he wanted to make the film himself thus he is planning to back this project personally and co-produce it with a Mumbai based banner.

The remake is reportedly going to be produced by Dil Raju, BR Films and T Series.
