Amitabh Bachchan to step in Rajnikanth’s shoes for Hindi version of ‘Kabali’?

Rajnikanth is like a living god who is worshipped by millions of his fans. Likewise, Bollywood’s megastar Amitabh Bachchan too is no less when it comes to having an immense fan following. So what can be better than having Senior Bachchan playing Rajnikanth’s titular role from his recently released, blockbuster film ‘Kabali’?

A little birdie tells us that a Bollywood remake of ‘Kabali’ is on cards and it would have none other than our Bollywood’s ‘Shehenshah’, Amitabh Bachchan in it.  Even though ‘Kabali’ had a dubbed version in Hindi, the film did not fare that well as compared to the original, hence a Hindi remake. A source informed a leading daily, “The reason Rajini’s Tamil films don’t do well when dubbed in Hindi is because they are very culture-specific.’ Kabali’ is set in the Tamil community in Malaysia. The flavour, culture and dialogues are all particular to the Tamil community.”

Isn’t this excellent? In past there have been Amitabh Bachchan films like ‘Deewar’ and ‘Don’ remade in Tamil featuring Rajinikanth. This time it’s just other way round!

What are your views? Will Amitabh Bachchan do justice to Rajnikanth’s role in ‘Kabali’s remake? Let us know in the comment section below.
