Dileep- Mamta Mohandas starrer Kodathi Samaksham Balan Vakeel is getting all kind of positive attention down south. The film is all set to get a remake in Bollywood, owing to the gripping scenes and intense role of a lawyer. Interestingly, the latest reports claim that the top contenders being chosen for this film are Shah Rukh Khan and Akshay Kumar. Shah Rukh Khan is Going Through Ten Scripts by These Directors and We Bet He'll be in a Dilemma to Choose One!.

As we all know, both the stars have a massive fanbase who will be rooting for their icons to play this role of a lawyer who stammers. With the capturing plot in the hands, we wonder who will be finalised in the end.

Silverscreen quoted a source saying, "Viacom (the production company) is considering remaking the movie and discussions are in the initial stages. We are talking to both Akshay Kumar and Shah Rukh Khan for starring in the movie."

Akki has earlier been in the shoes of a lawyer in his film Jolly LLB 2. The film was satirical and light-hearted and loved by the audience. On the other hand, SRK has never really played a lawyer on the silver screen. It will be indeed interesting to see if he gets a chance to don the character for a change, if not Akshay. Also, he will be next seen Farhan Akhtar's Don 3 where he will play the ultimate baddie like he always did. However, it is upto the makers as well as these superstars ofcourse, to decide upon the role. The flick directed by B Unnikrishnan was released on February 22 and now we await for more details on its ambitious remake.
