The trend of remaking classics, be it songs or films, is unlikely to go out of fashion. One of the pioneers of this trend was Jeetendra, who starred in the 1983 blockbuster, Himmatwala, a remake of the Telugu hit, Ooruki Monagadu. And over the last few years, Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar have given some of their biggest successes by relying heavily on their content and presenting it for the Hindi audiences.
And Bollywood doesn't only harp on remaking International or South Indian content, sometimes they peep into their own classics. And this is exactly what Rajkummar Rao will be seen doing. He's all set to reprise the role of Dharmendra in the remake of the 1975 classic comedy, Chupke Chupke. Talking about the same to Pune Mirror, the actor said, "It's a big responsibility to step into his shoes. The scripting is underway now. We know we can't match Hrishida's standard, but will try and put our best foot forward.”
