South actress-filmmaker Revathi is all set to direct the remake of
Mahesh Bhatt’s path-breaking 1982 drama 'Arth' which featured Kulbhushan Kharbanda,
Smita Patil and
Shabana Azmi in the lead roles.
Now that
Jacqueline Fernandez and
Swara Bhasker have been roped in to play the leading roles in the film reports suggests that the makers are eyeing to rope in
Emraan Hashmi to play the main lead opposite the two talented actresses.
Furthermore, the report also suggests that the actor is also interested in the project as it was helmed by Mahesh Bhatt and his closeness with the Bhatt family is known to all.
The makers of the film are supposedly reported to start shooting for the film by the end of this year and no official announcement has been made yet but the news of the cult film being remade has already got the fans on their toes.
