David
Dhawan's
upcoming
film
Coolie
No.
1
featuring
Varun
Dhawan
and
Sara
Ali
Khan
is
in
the
buzz
for
two
reasons-
firstly,
for
being
trolled
mercilessly
after
its
trailer
release;
secondly,
because
of
Varun
and
Sara's
act.
Netizens
say
that
the
duo
has
tried
very
hard
to
ape
Govinda
and
Karisma
Kapoor,
who
acted
in
the
original
film,
but
failed
miserably.
Amid
all
the
hullabaloo,
Shakti
Kapoor,
who
acted
in
the
original,
spoke
to
a
leading
daily
and
praised
Varun
and
Sara.
While
praising
Varun
and
Sara,
Shakti
said,
"Varun
meri
godh
mein
bada
hua
hai;
he
is
such
an
intense
actor
who
has
a
range
if
you
have
seen
'Badlapur'
and
'October'.
Sara
is
a
very
good
artiste."
In
the
same
interview,
Shakti
Kapoor
also
made
a
revelation
that
he
wanted
to
be
in
the
remake
of
Coolie
No.
1
too,
and
approached
David
for
the
same,
but
by
then,
the
filmmaker
had
completed
the
shoot.
Nonetheless,
Shakti
is
enthralled
for
Coolie
No.
1
release
and
said,
"I
can't
wait
for
December
25
to
see
Varun
Dhawan's
'Coolie
No.1'.
I
am
going
to
see
the
film
soonest.
David
is
a
maker
who
won't
leave
his
film
until
he
is
satisfied
in
all
respects.
So
we
can
rest
assured
that
it
must
be
a
nice
film.
Plus,
I
am
sure
he
will
have
some
surprise
in
this
one-
something
different
from
the
original
that
he
made
25
years
ago."
Coming
back
to
Coolie
No.
1,
the
film
also
casts
Paresh
Rawal,
Rajpal
Yadav,
Shikha
Talsania,
Johnny
Lever
and
Jaaved
Jaaferi
in
key
roles.
