The remake of Anil Kapoor and Sridevi's Mr. India was the talk of the town a few years ago. Now, it seems Bollywood has found the new Mr. India in Ranveer Singh!

Shekhar Kapur gave Hindi Cinema one of its most memorable and enjoyable films in the form of the 1987 classic, Mr. India, which escalated Anil Kapoor and Sridevi to the skies of stardom and made them every child's favourite. Even the villain, Mogambo, played by the inimitable Amrish Puri, had a childlike quality to it, and his Mogambo Khush Hua dialogue is still fresh and fascinating.
For years, it was reported that Boney Kapoor, who produced the film, was wanting to remake the Sci-Fi drama and who can forget Salman Khan being the front-runner for playing the new-age Mogambo. However, the project never happened. Now, Bollywood Hungama reports that Ali Abbas Zafar and Ranveer Singh have teamed up for a spin-off, tentatively titled Mr. India 2.
