The Hindi remake too will be helmed by Raghava Lawrence. While the script is more or less the same, makers have opted for one major change in the script of the Hindi remake. In the original, the lead character is scared of ghosts but in the Hindi version, Akshay's character will be a non-believer of supernatural elements. The shooting of the film is expected to start this month.

According to report of Mid-day, while the premise remains the same, Akshay's character has been chalked out as one who doesn't fear the supernatural. The makers also reworked the narrative to create a meaty role for Kiara Advani, who plays Akshay's wife. In the original film, the hero's mother and sister-in-law have pivotal parts. In the Hindi counterpart, the sequence where Akshay's character is possessed by a ghost - the turning point in the story - will take place at Kiara's house. Her character will play a crucial role in his exorcism. Finally, Akshay will be possessed by one ghost - that of the transgender, Lakshmi - and not three ghosts as seen in the Tamil movie.
