Hrithik Roshan to do the hindi remake of Knight & Day

Remakes have now become very popular in Bollywood. Everybody is very eager to do remake of successful films. And all the remakes are becoming smash Hits. This has now become the success mantra of Bollywood.

In 2008 Aamir Khan started this trend by making Ghajini which was a remake of a south film & than Salman Khan followed the tradition with Wanted.

All the A lister actors have started doing action remakes to enter into the 100 crore club. After doing some emotional movies like Guzaarish & Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara Hrithik Roshan has also stepped into action. He started off with Agneepath which became very successful & he entered into the 100 crore club. Then he is shooting right now for Krrish 3 where he plays a Superhero. And now he has decided to play the role of Tom Cruise in the remake of Knight & Day. This movie became huge hit in the year 2010.

This remake will be directed by Siddharth Anand & will be produced by Fox Star Studios. Hrithik will start shooting for this movie after he completes shooting for Krrish 3.

This is Siddharth Anand's second film after Anjana Anjaani which he did two years back. But the leading lady opposite Hrithik has not been finalised yet. But soon it will be finalised & an official announcement will be made. Since the co-star has to play the role of Cameron Diaz this is a very tough choice.

James Mangold's Knight & Day is a action-comedy & romantic film & was shot on a very large scale across different parts of the globe. The producers will take the same strategy for the remake also. The film is about a spy who is on the run.


Knight and Day is a romantic action comedy released in the year 2010. The film was earlier titled as Wichita & then Trouble Man. The direction was given by James Mangold.

The producer of the movie earlier chose many actors to play the lead roles in the movie. They are Will Smith, Chris Tucker & Gerard Butler. But ultimately they ended up with Tom Cruise & Cameron Diaz. The shooting was done in several places of Massachusetts, Spain & Austria.

The film was released on 23rd of June 2010 in the United States. The film received mixed reviews from critics. The ratings were average in Rotten Tomatoes & Meta Critics. The movie opened very poorly at the box office.

The cast of the movie was changed multiple times during the shooting. First when the movie was named Wichita the film was developed under the production of Revelution Studious. Then the movie was taken over by Sony Pictures & the movie was renamed as Trouble Man. Then finally Tom Cruise & Cameron Diaz were considered for the lead roles.

The other starcast consists of Maggie Grace, Peter Sarsgaard, Marc Blucas, Paul Dano, Viola Davis & Jordi Molla.

The film’s production partners are New Regency & Dune Entertainment. The music of the film is given by John Powell. The cinematography was done by Phedon Papamichael.

The remake will go on floors in February 2013. Meanwhile Hrithik is busy with Krissh 3 & Katrina is busy with Jab Tak Hai Jaan.

Lets wait & watch how further the producers & director can convert this flop Hollywood film to a hit Bollywood movie..
