MUMBAI: Looks like remaking a film has become the trick of the trade these days. The latest to jump the remaking bandwagon is Prakash Mehra‘s son Amit who is set to remake his father‘s classic Zanjeer.

After almost 30 odd years, Mehra, with the backing of his siblings Puneet and Sumeet, wants to remake the film as a homage to his departed father.

The film will be a modern take on the epic film that will attempt to keep the underlying pump and energy of the original that made it so intriguingly intact.

To add to Mehra‘s confidence is Amitabh Bachchan who has given his blessings for this project.

Mehra is now on the look out to tie up with the right production studios for his dream project who would share his vision of the film. It is said that the casting and director of the film is going to be kept under wraps for some time to maintain the novelty.
