Ali Abbas Zafar Opens Up On His Version Of Mr India & How It’s Different From Anil Kapoor, Sridevi’s Film

When Ali Abbas Zafar announced his project Mr India, neither the fans nor the director of the original film Shekhar Kapur was happy. Kapur slammed the Tiger Zinda Hai director for not informing him about the reboot of his much-loved film. The original film of 1987 stars Anil Kapoor and Sridevi in the lead roles.

From the day Ali Abbas Zafar had announced his Mr India, the internet has slammed him a lot. People have their childhood attached to the film and they don’t want a reboot of the already well-made film. Now, Ali has opened up about his idea of the film. He told Mumbai Mirror that it’s neither a remake nor a reboot of the original film.

The Sultan director shared, “It’s a completely new film, we are just calling it Mr India. My film is essentially about the common man fighting a mighty villain, but done in a cool, hip way, using science and technology and being relevant to today’s social scenario.”
