From the minute I first heard this story I felt this has to be a pan India film, because the soul of it was such.

Sudha, who is currently working with a set of writers in scripting the Hindi adaptation says: “I was instantly drawn to the story of ‘Soorarai Pottru’, the story of Captain Gopinath, an adventurous maverick and an inspiring entrepreneur who epitomised the New India of the nineties. I’m grateful for all the love we have received so far and look forward to telling this uni que and amazing story in Hindi. I hope this official Hindi remake also gets the same love as the original”.

The BrihanMumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has sealed several floors of a posh building in south Mumbai where Bollywood actor Suniel Shetty lives with his family due to rising Covid-19 cases reported from there, civic officials said here on Monday.

Nevertheless, he took to social media and commented: “Locked in or locked out Bolo Bolo tell tell.”

Along with Prithvi Apartments, the civic body has affixed the seal on at least 9 other posh buildings in the south Mumbai’s affluent Malabar Hill and surroundings for growing number of Covid-19 cases.
