While musical chairs are being played with the names of several A-list actresses for the remake of AR Murugadoss’s Tamil hit ‘Thuppaki’, here is the latest speculation...

It is said that Kajal Agarwal who played the lead heroine in the original will most probably roped in for the Hindi version as well. Earlier names of Sonakshi Sinha, Katirna Kaif and Parineeti Chopra had been making their rounds for the female lead’s role.

Talks are that the director is considering signing in the ‘Singham’ famed actress again for the remake since she has already played the character earlier and Murugdoss was pretty much impressed with the same.

‘Thuppaki’ which released in November stars South superstar Vijay and the action film went on to become a huge hit.

For the remake B-town’s Action King Akshay Kumar has given his nod. If all goes well then this will be Akki’s third film with a south beauty - Kajal; after Asin and Trisha.
