Karan Johar's Dharma Entertainment and Fox Star Studios have bagged the rights of Malayalam movie “Hridayam”, the filmmaker announced on Friday.
Featuring Mohanlal's son Pranav Mohanlal, the coming-of-age romantic-drama released in theatres worldwide on January 21 this year and attained critical and commercial success.
Taking to Twitter, the 49-year-old filmmaker expressed his excitement over buying the rights of the movie for three languages -- Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.
