Now this is what they say as ‘Coming to a full circle’...

For Apoorva Lakhia's remake of ‘Zanjeer’, initially, the hot looking ‘Dabangg’ baddie Sonu Sood was considered for the role of Sher Khan, played by Pran in earlier version.

But then plans changed; and Sanjay Dutt was alleged to have been approached for the role.

Then yet again things changed the offer was made to Arjun Rampal. However, of late we have been hearing news that how he dropped the project owing to his other commitments. And now, finally buzz is that the role has landed back in Sonu’s court...

Talks are that although Sonu has brought back on the board, the actor is yet to sign on the dotted lines.

The remake of ‘Zanjeer’ will also be simultaneously filmed in Telugu, with apparently same cast. The film’s lead is Ramcharan Teja, the superstar of Tollywood while Sonu has become a very popular face in Telugu industry. So its no wonder that the makers are coming up with the regional version of the film as well...

Stay tuned for more...
