A few months ago, it was confirmed that Madhu Mantena’s Phantom Studios collaborated with SKN and Allu Aravind’s Geetha Arts to produce the remake. However, they did not disclose anything else about the cast members and a potential release date.

It seems like Bollywood is finally considering giving a chance to new talent. This is possibly happening after many years and even if it is a remake of Baby, audiences won’t hesitate to buy a ticket since they would get a chance to see a new face on screen.
Despite planning a remake, the makers have taken a different approach by organizing the casting call. They might be trying to avoid any kind of criticism by finalizing a well-known face. It remains to be seen if the casting call turns out to be the best decision taken by the producers.
