Filmmaker Karan Johar is set to produce the remake of Subhash Ghai’s 1989 film Ram Lakhan in association with the latter’s Mukta Arts. Hit director Rohit Shetty has been roped in to helm the project.

‘Here’s the big announcement! Rohit Shetty & Karan Johar, in association with Mukta Arts, present RAM LAKHAN in 2016,’ read a message from the official Twitter handle of Karan’s Dharma Productions, Friday.

The original Ram Lakhan featured an ensemble cast that included Anil Kapoor, Jackie Shroff, Madhuri Dixit, Dimple Kapadia and Raakhee. However, the actors for the remake are yet to be locked.
