Not sure if Sairat is being remade in Hindi: Director Nagraj Manjule

The director however admitted that he would want to see the movie coming out in as many languages as possible. “I would be happy to see it being remade in other languages as well, “said Nagraj.

Speculations are rife that Karan Johar, in association with Zee, will roll out the Hindi version of Sairat and the same will mark the debut of Sridevi’s elder daughter, Jhanvi Kapoor.

Karan Johar lauded Sairat. But if reports are to be believed, Karan seems to have loved the film a li’l more than others and has apparently bought the remake rights of the film too.

When asked whether he would like to direct the Hindi one, if it is ever made, Nagraj said, “No. I am done with Sairat now.”
