Pinkvilla was the first to report that the Malayalam film, The Great Indian Kitchen is gearing up for a Hindi remake soon.

And now, we have another exclusive update on this film.

Pinkvilla has learnt that the makers are in advanced talks with Sanya Malhotra to come on board this drama. “There were multiple producers in the race to bag remake rights of The Great Indian Kitchen and it’s after great competition that Harman and Vicky bagged the rights.
