Shahid Kapoor
After several names were tossed around for the lead role of the Hindi remake of Arjun Reddy (2017), the project has finally landed in Shahid Kapoor's kitty. Considering the Vijay Deverakonda starrer was a runaway hit upon its release, it isn't surprising that producers of the Hindi remake had to apparently dig deep into their pockets to acquire the rights. Rumours suggest that the makers have paid a hefty sum of Rs 7 crore to bring the story to Bollywood. Usually, remake rights are procured for an amount ranging from Rs 2 to 5 crore.
