Since ‘Anniyan’ was released 16 years back in 2005, director Shankar is planning to adapt the film in such a way that the story is set in today’s timeline. With a big star like Ranveer Singh on board, the film is expected to be made on a much bigger scale than the original. It must be remembered that ‘Anniyan’ was dubbed and released in Hindi as ‘Aparichit’. It is a very popular film among the North Indian audience as it is one of the most telecast films in Hindi television channels.
