Akshay Kumar to star in remake of Tamil blockbuster Ramana A few days ago it was reported that Akshay Kumar would be playing the lead in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's remake of the Tamil hit, Ramana (2002). Now it's confirmed that popular south director, M Raja, is set to helm the yet-untitled Hindi version with Akshay Kumar. And after teaming up with Prabhudheva for Rowdy Rathore, this is the second time Akki will work with a south Indian director. A source says, "It was Bhansali who suggested Raja's name. When he discussed it with Akshay, the latter was more than happy, because he is aware of Raja's super-hit record. Since then, Akshay has had a couple of meetings with Raja about the remake." Designer-turned-producer Shabina Khan, who also had jointly produced Rowdy Rathore with Sanjay Leela Bhansali, is now brought the rights of Ramana. She says, "I have bought the rights of Tamil film Ramana. I will remake it in Hindi. It's a beautiful film and I believe the audience will enjoy watching the film in Hindi." "Akshay Kumar will play the lead in my film and the film will go on the floors in mid-2013," added the producer. 2002 blockbuster, Ramana was helmed by A.R. Murugadoss and starred Vijayakanth and Simran. In the remake, along with Akshay, actress like Asinand Tamannaah will be seen. The film is expected to release in middle of 2013.
