Sairat Remake Will Be Very Different From The Original!

It’s finally going to be Jahnvi Kapoor and Ishaan Kapoor in Karan Johar’s Hindi take on the phenomenal Marathi hit Sairat.

Karan Johar was apparently divided between casting Saif Ali Khan -Amrita Singh’s daughter Sara and Jahnvi since  he has committed himself to introducing  both the star-daughters. Apparently Karan zeroed in on Ishaan to  play the Dalit boy who falls in love with theBrahmin girl in Sairat.

“But it was a toss-up between Sara and Jahnvi for the girl’s part. Finally Jahnvi got the part in Sairat. But Karan is still very much committed to introducing Sara,” says a source in the know.

Shashank Khaitan who directed the hit Badrinath Ki Dulhaniya forKaran Johar earlier this year has been handed the responsibility of  adapting Sairat to Hindi.Apparently there will be many changes. The rich upper-caste girl will be from a far more affluent background, while the boy would be a rugged sporty type.

Says a source, “The entire set-up would be far glamorous . The film will have a real and raw dramatic conflict like Sairat. But it would be  a  far more  good-looking film than Sairat. Shashank has been chosen for his familiarity with rustic theme in Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhaniyaand Badrinath Ki Dulhaniya.”
