Malayalam movie #Home to be remade in Hindi by Abundantia Entertainment

Vikram Malhotra’s Abundantia Entertainment is all set to remake the acclaimed Malayalam film #Home in Hindi. Abundantia is collaborating with Vijay Babu’s Friday Film House, the banner that produced the original movie. Vijay also played a pivotal character in the film.

#Home is about a technologically challenged father (Indrans), who attempts to reconnect with his children in today’s digital world. Amazon Prime Video is currently streaming the film which also stars Sreenath Bhasi, Srikant Murali and Aju Varghese.

Abundantia Entertainment is also remaking another acclaimed Friday Film House production, Angamaly Diaries (2017), in Hindi. The project is currently in the pre-production stage.

Speaking about the development with #Home, Abundantia CEO Malhotra said, “We are delighted with the opportunity to recreate a beautiful and relevant film like #Home that is such a topical yet entertaining statement on the world we live in today. Abundantia Entertainment has always believed in combining meaningful storytelling with heart-warming entertainment and the Hindi remake of #Home is another step in that journey.

"In Vijay and Friday Film House, we have collaborators that share our vision and sensibility and I am happy to join hands with them again after the in-development remake of Angamaly Diaries.”

Vijay Babu said in his statement, “#Home talks about relationships and how they are evolving in the digital era. It is a universal subject and I am excited that this film will now be adapted for a wider, pan-India audience through the Hindi remake.

"Having collaborated with Abundantia Entertainment on the Hindi remake of Angamaly Diaries, we believe in their ability to take our film to newer heights and I am truly excited to partner with Vikram and team once again.”

Shikhaa Sharma, creative and development head at Abundantia, said the decision to remake #Home was instant. “As soon as we saw #Home, the team and I knew this was a story waiting to be retold for the larger, pan-India audience. I can’t wait to work on adapting this poignant story in Hindi,” she said.

Abundantia Entertainment is also doing the Hindi remake of the successful Tamil movie Soorarai Pottru (2020), which starred Suriya.
