Ajith Kumar to star in Tamil remake of Ayushmann Khurrana-starrer Article 15?

With reports surfacing about Boney Kapoor bagging the rights of Anubhav Sinha's Article 15, speculations are rife that Ajith Kumar might be reprising the role of Ayushmann Khurrana from the original. 

If it happens, this film will mark Ajith's third collaboration with the producer after the recently released Nerkonda Paarvai, the remake of Pink, and the upcoming Thala 60, both directed by H Vinoth. 

Earlier, it was suggested that Dhanush evinced interest in remaking this superhit film, which also received its fair share of criticism over representation. 

Will the Tamil remake see Ajith don the khaki once again? Will it be Dhanush's first cop avatar? Or will it be a new choice altogether? 

The competition to bring Article 15 to the Tamil audience is clearly heating up, and it will be interesting to see who gets to finally step into the shoes of IPS officer Ayan Ranjan.
