RJ Balaji to star in Badhaai Ho Tamil remake

Ayushmann Khuranna’s superhit film ‘Badhaai Ho’ is set to be remade in Tamil. RJ Balaji and NJ Saravanan, who last directed ‘Mookuthi Amman’, will be helming this film. RJ Balaji himself will be playing the lead role played by Ayushmann in the original. More details on the supporting cast and crew members are awaited.

‘Badhaai Ho’ directed by Amit Sharma is a feel-good family entertainer that did fabulous business at the box office. Along with Ayushmann, the other major roles were played by Neena Gupta, Gajraj Rao, Surekha Sikri and Sanya Malhotra. Besides the commercial success, the film also on to win two National Awards — Best Popular Film Providing Wholesome Entertainment and Best Supporting Actress for Surekha Sikri.

It will be interesting to see how the Tamil version turns out. RJ Balaji is known for his knack for cracking message-oriented films with humour in it. He is expected to follow the same pattern this time as well.
