John in Vedalam remake?

A while back it was reported that Varun Dhawan would be seen in his brother, Rohit Dhawan’s next venture. However, responding to the rumours, Varun clarified that he is not part of Rohit’s next and now, we hear that John Abraham has been roped-in for the filmmaker’s next. Along with this, we also have news that the venture will be a remake of the south superstar Ajith Kumar-starrer Vedalam. It is reportedly set to be produced by Bhushan Kumar’s T-Series.

A source shared, “Rohit Dhawan’s next is a remake of the south film Vedalam that released in 2015. Being an action film that featured Ajith, Rohit was pretty clear that he too would need an A-list action star for its Bollywood remake. Now John Abraham, who has already proved that he is perfect for an action entertainer, was an obvious choice for it.Though there still is time before the venture goes on floors, the Vedalam remake is currently being backed by Bhushan Kumar, and will be produced under his banner T-Series. In the past, Bhushan and John have collaborated on multiple projects, and with T-Series coming on board, John’s part as the lead in this actioner was further reinforced.”
