David Dhawan to remake Coolie No. 1 with son Varun Dhawan

After setting the cash registers jingling with their previous blockbusters, Main Tera Hero (2014) and Judwaa 2 (2017), the father-son duo of David Dhawan and Varun Dhawan is set to reteam for yet another comic caper.

According to reports, David is planning to remake his 1995 blockbuster Coolie No. 1 with his son Varun Dhawan. The original film was headline by Govinda and Karisma Kapoor.


A couple of weeks ago, reports were doing the rounds that David Dhawan was gearing up to launch his own production house with sons Varun and Rohit Dhawan. The remake of Coolie No. 1 is expected to be the first venture to be made under the new banner.

Varun has reportedly given his nod to star in the film. Now we are waiting for an official announcement.

Meanwhile, Varun is presently busy with Abhishek Verman’s Karan Johar-produced film Kalank, co-starring Alia Bhatt, Sonakshi Sinha, Madhuri Dixit, Aditya Roy Kapur and Sanjay Dutt. It releases on April 19, 2019.
