Recently, Vijay Deverakonda's Telugu film Arjun Reddy was remade in Hindi as Kabir Singh, starring Bollywood star Shahid Kapoor in the lead role. Arjun Reddy was a blockbuster but Kabir Singh exceeded the glory by becoming the top earning Bollywood film of 2019. Both Arjun Reddy and Kabir Singh were directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga.
Dear Comrade will open in cinemas on July 26.
