Exclusive: Akshay Kumar-Anees Bazmee reunite for crazy love triangle – a reimagined Sankranti Vasthoonam; To go on floors in February 2026
A source told IHNS, “Anees and Akshay loved the story of the lead character torn between his wife and his ex-girlfriend, on which Sankranti Vasthanam runs. However, the original had too much of a Telugu flavour. To make the film entertaining for the Hindi audience, Anees Bazmee is re-imagining the film while keeping the core story intact.”
The source further told IHNS, “Anees is adept at writing new scripts based on already established films, and this one too will not only be bigger than the original, but also funnier, as he plans to put together a lot of gags in the narrative, which were not present in the original film. Over three decades, Bazmee has written many love triangles in the comic space, and this falls in his domain of situational comedy.”
The writing work is going on in full swing, and the makers are aiming to take the untitled film on the floors in February 2026. The film is not a remake, but a new take on the original film, as the screenplay will be packed with new scenes. “It is 60 percent fresh sequence, and only 40 percent original to retain the essence of the plot.”
