Ranveer, Arjun is on Pahlaj Nihalani's list for Aankhen remake
He's also considering Ranbir and Imran Khan for it
Ranbir and Shahid are also on his list of actors
"Ranbir and Imran will also make an excellent combination, as will Ranbir and Shahid Kapoor and Ayushmann Khurrana and Rajkummar Rao," Mr Nihlani told mid-day.
Aankhen, which turned out to be a blockbuster hit, cast Govinda in dual roles. About the new project, this is what the filmmaker said: "With each character playing a double role, we will see two Ranveers and two Arjuns, along with a chimpanzee."
Pahlaj Nihalani recently tasted failure with the damp performance of Julie 2 at the box office, told mid-day: "people want entertainment" and hence the Aankhen remake will have a fresh story-line. "The subject will be completely different. It should reflect current times. It should be modern, keeping the trends and the youth's preferences in mind. It will have Indian values and sentiments at its core, but, will be one that appeals to the youth," mid-day quoted him as saying.
Ranveer Singh is currently awaiting the release of Padmavati, which has been postponed indefinitely because of the ugly controversy around it. Ranbir Kapoor is prepping for the Sanjay Dutt biopic at the moment while Arjun Kapoor will next be seen in Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar.
