Allu Arjun's Ala Vaikunthapurramloo was a massive at the box office earlier this year. Since then many producers have been trying to acquire remake rights. According to a source, a Hindi remake is in the works. Rumour has it that Kartik Aaryan will be taking on Allu Arjun's role for the original. Rohit Dhawan might be directing the film.

A source says, "Allu Arjun and S Radha Krishna are now teaming up one more time to produce Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo in Hindi. The script is in place and they have even got a director on board to helm the project. Rohit Dhawan, who earlier directed Desi Boyz and Dishoom will be captaining this one. The makers wanted to make it with a young Gen-Y star who has a good audience base." And now, they seem to have locked someone for it. It was also said that" "Kartik has been narrated the full Hindi version of the script over a video call recently in the presence of Allu and Radha Krishna. He had loved the original and from what we hear, he has already given his nod to the Hindi remake as well. The team is currently figuring out his dates and will lock the schedule once everything is back to normal." Dostana 2 is already on Karthik Aryan's schedule for the year. The actor will be working on the film Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2. The source says that" he will start the Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo remake while his next with Om Raut will be ready to go on floors by then. But in all possibilities, Kartik's team is working the dates in such a way that the remake rolls this year itself and is ready for a release early 2021." It is also rumored that the original film’s producers Allu Arjun and S Radha Krishna might be backing the Hindi remake. The official announcement is yet to arrive.
