"We are contemplating with the idea of remaking it. So far, we have got offers to be make this film in Gujarati, Tamil and Punjabi."
 
"Ventilator" revolves around an ailing senior member of a family who is being put on the ventilator just days before the Ganpati festival, leading to varied degrees of speculation and panic among the large clan he belongs to.
