The Tamil horror comedy Kanchana 2 is redone in Hindi with Akshay Kumar in the lead and the film, tentatively titled Laxmi, will be screened on the floors on Monday. New reports suggest that major changes have been made to the script – while the original featured an easily frightened character, Akshay will play the role of a fearless man who does not believe in ghosts.
Kiara Advani, who also worked with Akshay in Good News will also join him for the remake of Kanchana 2. The original was directed by Raghava Lawrence, who will also lead the Hindi remake.

A Mid Day report quoted a source quoting: Although the premise remains the same, Akshay's character was qualified of someone who does not fear the supernatural. The decision makers also reworked the story to create a fleshy role for Kiara Advani, who plays Akshay's wife. In the original film, the hero's mother and sister-in-law have essential roles. In Hindi, the sequence in which Akshay's character is possessed by a ghost – the turning point in history – will take place at Kiara. His character will play a crucial role in his exorcism. Finally, Akshay will be possessed by a ghost – that of transgender Laxmi – and not by three ghosts as shown by the Tamil film. "
Akshay takes the place of Sarathkumar, who starred in the original film.
Meanwhile, Akshay has completed the filming of Good News and has some films in preparation, including Housefull 4 and Mangal Mission He was last seen in the blockbuster Kesari, alongside Parineeti Chopra.
