The Superstar storm is sweeping Bollywood too, so to say. Close on the stupendous success of Enthiran's Hindi version 'Robot', Rajinikanth's all-time blockbuster 'Baadsha' was dubbed in Bollywood. And recently, the numero uno actor of South India appeared in a cameo in Shah Rukh Khan's 'Ra.One'.

Now the latest buzz is that attempts are on to remake Rajini-starrer 'Thalapathi', a Mani Ratnam directed film, in Hindi. Bollywood producer Bharat Shah, who is a close associate to Mani Ratnam, has acquired the remake rights.

"Bharat Shah shares a close rapport with Mani Ratnam professionally as well personally. He believes that the storyline of Thalapathi has got all ingredients to make it big in Bollywood. Hence he had acquired the remake rights of the movie from Mani Ratnam," sources say.

It is said that Puja Jatineder Bedi will direct the film and two top stars of Bollywood will play the roles that were made memorable by Rajini and Mammootty. "The script is being rewritten to suit to the taste of present day audience," sources add.
