Motion poster of renowned filmmaker David Dhawan’s next directorial, Coolie No. 1, has been unveiled. As the title suggests itself, the movie is an official remake of his 1995 cult comic-caper by the same name. While the original film starred Govinda and Karisma Kapoor in lead roles, the remake features Varun Dhawan and Sara Ali Khan as the lead pair.
Varun Dhawan, who reteams with his filmmaker father, David Dhawan, for the third time after hits like Main Tera Hero (2014) and Judwaa 2 (2017), on Sunday unveiled the motion poster of Coolie No. 1 on his Twitter handle. "Mujhe pata hai ki aapko pata hai. Aapko pata hai ki mujhe pata hai. Lekin kya aapko voh pata hai jo mujhe pata hai? #1May2020 #CoolieNo.1," tweeted the Bollywood star.
The team commenced the first shooting schedule of the film in Bangkok earlier this week. This is the first time when Varun Dhawan has joined hands with newcomer Sara Ali Khan for a film. Besides Varun and Sara, the audience will also see seasoned actors Paresh Rawal and Johny Lever essaying important characters in the comic-caper. The movie is set to roll into theatres on 1st May, 2020.
Varun, who was last seen in Dharma Productions’ period drama Kalank (2019), recently wrapped up his much-awaited dance film, Street Dancer 3D, with Shraddha Kapoor. The movie reunites Varun and Shraddha with filmmaker Remo D'souza after ABCD 2 (2015), which was a big box-office success.
As for Sara Ali Khan, she has just wrapped up her third Bollywood outing, Aaj Kal. She pairs up opposite rising Bollywood star Kartik Aaryan in the film which has been directed by ace storyteller Imtiaz Ali. Aaj Kal is slated to hit the marquee on 14th February, 2020.
