Luv Ranjan and Bhushan kumar are planning to remake this Hrishikesh Mukherji’s classic drama which starred Amitabh Bachchan, Dharmendra, Sharmila Tagore, Jaya Bachchan and others. Now we have the news that Vicky Kaushal is going to be an important part of it. Read on further to know more.

According to latest reports, the makers of Chupke Chupke remake are planning to feature Vicky Kaushal along with Rajkummar Rao. Further the reports also mention that he will play the role of Professor Sukumar Sinha which was originally played by Amitabh Bachchan.

Talking to an entertainment portal, a source said, “The makers have offered the Chupke Chupke remake to Vicky Kaushal now. Although he is yet to sign on the dotted line, the producers felt he is the perfect choice to play Big B’s role from the original. They feel he can portray the character and its nuances really well. Also, Rajkummar and Vicky have never shared screen space together and it will be a casting coup if it happens.”

Earlier it was also reported that the remake will have Ayushmann Khurrana along with Rajkummar Rao. But the source said that it was not the plan. “Rajkummar is wrapping work on Dinesh Vijan’s Hum Do Humare Do. Then, he will start shoot of Badhai Do and he also has the Hindi remake of the Telugu cop thriller HIT. In between the two films, the makers want to take Chupke Chupke also on the floors, after locking the entire cast and their dates.” the source said.
