Mumbai, July 5, 2021: It is raining remakes in the Bollywood film industry. Having already dozens of remakes in the making, filmmaker Ekta Kapoor has locked one more Hindi remake. She will be producing the Hindi remake of the 2016 Kannada supernatural thriller film, U-Turn, which starred Shraddha Srinath in the lead role.

The Hindi remake will be headed by Aalia Furniturewalla, who made a smashing debut with the 2020 comedy-drama film, Jawaani Jaaneman. U-Turn remake will be Alaya F's only second film that will be directed by debutante Arif Khan. The supernatural thriller film will be backed by Cult Movies, a new division launched under Ekta Kapoor's Balaji Telefilms while the shooting will commence on July 6 in Mumbai.



Speaking about Alyay's role in the film, producer Ekta Kapoor said, "Alaya was fantastic in her debut film. There's a self-assured yet vulnerable quality to her that I believe can connect with audiences. U-Turn takes you on a ride with twists and turns galore, and provides edge-of-the-seat excitement".

Alaya, too, is delighted about the opportunity that has come her way. The talented star kid shared that working with Ekta so early in her career is very exciting, especially since the project is so interesting. Alaya went on to add, "I feel responsible to be given the task to drive such an intriguing story".

The plot of the film revolves around the death of motorists who break a traffic rule at a particular flyover in Bangalore and subsequent pinning down of the culprit by an intern journalist and police inspector duo. U-Turn has already been remade in multiple Indian and international languages.

The film was remade in Malayalam in 2017 as Careful. It was later remade into a Telugu-Tamil bilingual in 2018 with Samantha Akkineni in the lead role. The film was also officially remade in Sri Lanka in Sinhala in 2019 with the same title. The Filipino remake with the same title was released on 30 October 2020.
