Did you love all the seasons of Money Heist? Well, our very own handsome hunk Arjun Rampal is coming as the Professor in its Hindi remake. The remake has been titled ‘Three Monkeys’.
Sharing a close-up selfie on Twitter, Arjun Rampal wrote, “Lights Camera Action. On Set again. A new Journey begins. #ThreeMonkeys #AbbasMustanHusain #Mumbai #Filmset.”
Filmmaker-director duo Abbas Mustan have taken up the desi adaptation of Money Heist. It is said that Arjun Rampal is playing the role inspired by the Professor from the Spanish show.
A few days ago, the grapevine was abuzz with this speculation, and today Arjun Rampal has started shooting for the project.
“Aray desi professor I hope Bollywood can give a tough competition to Money Heist,” wrote a fan in the comments section. Another one wrote, “Our Indian professor”.
In the original Spanish series, the plot involves two robberies by a group headed by a mastermind, dubbed as The Professor. The character is played by Alvaro Morte. The group of robbers in the show are named after cities — Tokyo, Moscow, Denver, Nairobi, Rio, Helsinki, Oslo and Berlin.
Three Monkeys will be directed by Abbas Alibhai Burmawalla and Mustan Alibhai Burmawalla. The film will mark the return of the filmmaker duo to direction five years after Machine, which marked the launch of Abbas’ son, Mustafa Burmawala.
Apart from Three Monkeys, Arjun will next be seen in the spy thriller movie Dhaakad alongside actor Kangana Ranaut. He will also be seen in the period war drama titled The Battle of Bhima Koregaon, which depicts the events that took place during the Battle of Koregaon. Arjun will play the role of Mahar warrior Sidhnak Inamdar. Arjun is set to star in the Telugu period action film Hari Hara Veera Mallu alongside Pawan Kalyan and Nidhhi Agerwal in the lead role.
