Akshay Kumar had earlier acted in the Hindi remake of Vijay’s Thuppakki and it became super success. He is all set to start the Hindi remake of Vijay’s Kaththi as well in the coming August. Theri had got great response from overseas and it had surpassed the business done by Akshay Kumar’s super hit film Airlift which released this year. That may also invited Akshay Kumar’s attention on to this one.

Akshay Kumar is currently busy with Shankar’s Enthiran 2. He will have release like Houseful 3 coming up and will do a film with Neeraj Pandey titled Rustom as well this year.

There are some talks going on which says that Vijay-Atlee team is planning a second part to Theri. But is not a confirmed news as of now. Anyway, it will be great if Akshay Kumar plays the lead in Theri Hindi remake as Akshay Kumar always done justice to the original version whenever he had remade films from south.
