Ok Jaanu is the official remake of the super hit Tamil film 'Ok Kanmani'. Slated to release on 13th January, 2017, let me tell you why this film should fare well at the BO.

1. Official Remake Of A Super-Hit Tamil Film

Ok Kanmani, made by the ace director Mani Ratnam, was extremely successful. Not only did it get success financially, but also got huge critical acclaim. Mani Ratnam is also co-producing the movie along with Karan Johar which makes it an interesting prospect. The director of the original movie joining hands for its remake sounds cool, right?

2. Shraddha Kapoor - Aditya Roy Kapoor. TOGETHER!

The whole of Bollywood had been desperately waiting to see this couple come on-screen again. The hot duo had created massive buzz when they last came together for Aashiqui 2. Their sizzling chemistry was a huge reason for the success of Aashiqui 2. Going by the stills and songs of the movie, I'm pretty much sure they're gonna slay it this time!

Drool!

3. AR Rahman & Gulzar

AR Rahman + Gulzar = Magic! The film's dialogues have been written by the living legend Gulzar. No wonder the film's gonna be high on beautiful dialogues! The music of this film is given by AR Rahman. Some of the songs have been released and they look very promising. This melodious duo is enough to pull the audience towards theaters.

4. The First Big Release Of 2017!

After Dangal, Ok Jaanu is the first big release of Bollywood. After a drought of 20 days, film enthusiasts would love to visit the theaters again. Though it's clashing with Haraamkhor starring Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Ok Jaanu will definitely get a bigger release due to its star power and mass appeal. Even the trailer and songs have stirred a buzz around Bollywood.

They look SO GOOD!

5. Production Houses Of Dharma & Fox Star Studios

Dharma Productions and Fox Star Studios co-produced films like 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil', 'Kapoor & Sons' and 'Dear Zindagi' which were all big hits. Going by their recent success, Ok Jaanu will also benefit a lot from the word of mouth of these production houses.

Adorable!

Special Mention - Naseeruddin Shah

Naseeruddin Shah is one of best actors in our country. He was seen in the opening and ending scenes of the trailer. He along with Leela Samson are portraying Aditya-Shraddha's landlords. If he is given sufficient screen time, the old man will definitely leave a mark after the film.
