Confirming this, Chetan said, "My latest book Revolution 2020 has really been appreciated by readers all over. It has already sold over 8.5 lakh copies in just over a month. The book deals with issues that are topical for today's youth and has definite potential for being made into a film."
Speaking about the deal with UTV, Chetan says, "I have been in talks with UTV for a while now. In fact they read the book before it was officially released and loved it. They were keen to remake it into a film and I am glad that the deal has now materialized."
When asked if he would be involved in any capacity with the film, Chetan said, "That is upto UTV. I am caught up with quite a lot of things at the moment but if they require any assistance, I would be happy to provide it to them. I am happy with the kind of deal they have offered me and it's high time that writers get their due."
Casting of the film is yet not decided but the buzz is that it would star three A-list Bollywood stars.
