Siddharth Malhotra gets 'Fast and Furious'!

Choreographer-turned-director Remo D’Souza, close on the heels of his 3D dance film, has been signed on by Karan Johar to direct an action-adventure flick. A source from the production team reveals that this high-voltage action thriller will star Siddharth Malhotra and will be on the lines of the hit Hollywood franchisee The Fast and The Furious. The film revolves around illegal street racing and heists. Says a source, “Remo, Karan and his team are constantly meeting and working on the script. It’s too early to reveal anything, but all we can say is that the action will revolve around cars.” Shooting will begin soon after Sid wraps up KJo’s other romcom Hasee Toh Phasee with Parineeti Chopra. Remo’s film will be Sid’s third outing with his Student of The Year producer. Remo shares, “The film will go on the floors by year-end.”
