Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Telugu blockbuster starring Vijay Deverakonda in the lead is being remade in Bollywood. The Hindi version is titled 'Kabir Singh' by the makers and has the protagonist Shahid Kapoor. The film is helmed by the same director Sandeep Vanga who directed the Telugu version and the film is currently on the floors.

Recently Shahid was clicked in his movie look and we see the hero sporting dense beard with his shabby look and medium length hair. The film will feature a broken Kabir Singh who turns to a massive liquor addict as the love of his life is married to someone else. The actor's look is peculiar to that of Vijay Deverakonda who was the lead in Arjun Reddy.

In an interview with a leading daily, director Vanga revealed that the Hindi remake will be even more intense than the original. Speaking about the film he said, "When I made Arjun Reddy, I wasn't sure where to draw the line in terms of representation of certain things. I don't think I'd have to restrict myself when it comes to the Hindi version. I believe I'll have more freedom in Bollywood."

Moreover, Arjun Reddy gained critical and commercial acclaim; the film was made with a budget of 5 cr went on to rake 50 cr mark at the box-office.
