Irfan Khan to play the barber

Malayalam actor Sreenivasan is carving a niche for himself as his films are widely remade in various languages. His Malayalam films like 'Udhayannau Tharam' and '€˜Sanmanassullavarkku Samadhanam' were all remade in many languages with acceptable success.

The remaking work of his latest hit '€˜Katha Parayumpol'€™ has already begun in the title 'Kuselan'. Actor Pashupathy will appear as the barber in the Tamil version and Jagapathy Babu in Telugu.

But in Bollywood, Shahrukh Khan's home production Red Chillies Entertainment has come forward to produce the remake. Irfan Khan is all set to play the role of the barber in the movie which is titled after the character as 'Billoo Barber'.

Kareena Kapoor will appear in the role that Meena did in the original. And it is none other than Shah Rukh Khan, who will play the role of the superstar donned by Superstar Rajinikanth in Tamil and Telugu.
