After making commercially and critically successful films like Vicky Donor, Madras Cafe and Force 2, John Abraham has made one thing very clear that he has got an eye for good content, at least when it comes to producing movies.
The actor has just wrapped up his next production, Parmanu: The Story of Pokhran, and the news is coming in that he is all set to produce another content-driven film. But this time, instead of working on an original idea, the actor-turned-producer has opted for a Spanish film which he plans to remake for the Indian audience.
According to reports, John Abraham recently watched the Spanish thriller film The Invisible Guest and liked it so much that he decided to remake it in Hindi. The actor has, reportedly, already bought the remake rights of the movie. Apart from producing, John will act in it, too.
Sources reveal that Taapsee Pannu, who won a lot of awards and accolades for her compelling performance in the movie Pink, has been roped in to play the female lead, but there will be no romantic angle between her and John's character in the film.
The yet-to-be-titled film will be co-produced by JA Entertainment and Prernaa Arora and Arjun N Kapoor's KriArj Entertainment. Newcomer Lakshya will be making his directorial debut with the film. If all things fall into place, the film will go to sets by the end of this year.
