If these reports are anything to go by, the Hindi remake of the film will be helmed by the same director Rathna Kumar. Talking about the film, Aadai was a debacle at the box-office, reportedly pulling in only meagre numbers. Several reviewers and box office analysts noted that the film failed to collect big returns, despite being one of the most critically acclaimed films of the year. Aadai narrates the story of a free-spirited young girl Kamini, who is stuck in an empty office building with no telephone, after a farewell party. She could not go out to ask help as she finds herself naked and in a very "delicate" situation. The lead character was portrayed by south actor Amala Paul. The film hit theatres this year in July.
