Ajay Devgn to topline Satte Pe Satta remake?

It has been about a year since Farah Khan and Rohit Shetty announced their maiden collaboration with much fanfare. Reportedly, the two had been wanting to remake the 1982 cult film Satte Pe Satta for a long time now. However, things did not fall into place and the project kept getting delayed again and again.

If reports are to be believed, Farah Khan has taken the script of her film to almost all leading men in Bollywood, including Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan and Hrithik Roshan. We also learnt some time ago that Junior Roshan bowed out of the project after coming onboard, as he was not too convinced with the script.


The latest update on the much-talked-about remake is that Farah Khan and Rohit Shetty have gone to Ajay Devgn with the script. The actor has even given his nod to the film. "Ajay had given his nod to the script. Ajay and Rohit have shared a great camaraderie always and with the team facing a hurdle, Devgn has stepped in to rescue Shetty. Ajay, who just delivered a hit with Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior (2020), will soon begin shooting for Golmaal Five and once the female lead is locked, the actor will be giving his dates for SPS,” a well-placed source informs an entertainment portal.

However, when the team of the superstar was contacted for a response, they denied all rumours and said that nothing is confirmed.

Anushka Sharma, who has not announced any film after the debacle of Zero (2018), was earlier set to play the female lead in the Satte Pe Satta remake. However, when Hrithik Roshan walked out, she too decided to quit the film.

More details are expected to arrive soon.

There’s a quiet shift happening on streaming platforms this year. Indian mythological stories, once treated as children’s animation or festival reruns, have started landing on global services with serious ambition. These titles are travelling further than they ever have, including into the UK’s busy OTT space.

It’s about scale, quality, and the strange comfort of old stories in a digital world that changes too fast. And in a UK market dealing with subscription fatigue, anything fresh, strong, and rooted in clear storytelling gets noticed.
