200 Not Out Cinemas Pvt. Ltd., the makers of "Sachin: A Billion dreams", are set to make a film on the book "Brewster's Millions" by George Barr McCutcheon.
The novel revolves around Montgomery Brewster, a young man who inherits a million dollars from his rich grandfather.
Shortly after, his rich uncle dies and leaves Brewster seven million dollars, but only under the condition that he keeps none of the money inherited from his grandfather.
Brewster is required to spend every penny of his grandfather's inheritance within one year.
