==Production==<br />
''Channa Mereya'' is an official remake of the 2016 [[Marathi language|Marathi]] film ''[[Sairat]]''. While remaining largely faithful to the original film, director [[Pankaj Batra]] took a few liberties: while the male lead of ''Sairat'' had a younger sister, the character was replaced with a younger brother in ''Channa Mereya''. The male lead's friend in Marathi was a farmer, while the remake depicted him as a mechanic. Ninja, a playback singer, made his acting debut with this film, as did lyricist and singer [[Amrit Maan]].<ref name="tribuneindia">{{Cite news |url=https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/movie-reviews/remake-gone-wrong/436588.html |title=Remake gone wrong |last=Singh |first=Jasmine |date=14 July 2017 |work=[[The Tribune (Chandigarh)]] |access-date=31 July 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180722184824/https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/movie-reviews/remake-gone-wrong/436588.html |archive-date=22 July 2018 |url-status=live }}</ref><br />
