The remakes of South films in Bollywood and vice-versa seem to be the growing trend in the present scenario. The makers are surely keeping an eye on not just the latest releases but even the past hits in other film industries.
Srinu Vaitla’s ‘Ready’ seems to have opened floodgates for Telugu films to be remade in Hindi! Soon after the Salman Khan, Asin starrer Ready was termed as a blockbuster, Bollywood heroes and directors are keen on remaking some hit Telugu films. Already, Vikramarkudu and Kick are being remade in Hindi.
The latest news is that Srinu Vaitla’s Dhee starring Manchu Vishnu and Genelia is going to be remade in Hindi. Indra Kumar is going to direct the Hindi version. He had recently made comedy films like Masti, Dhamaal and Double Dhamaal. The cast is expected to be remade soon.
Interestingly, Kona Venkat who wrote the Telugu version of Dhee has been asked to write for the Hindi version as well. Lady luck has indeed smiled upon Kona Venkat. He’s working on four big projects – Sher Khan, No Entry-2, Dhee (Hindi) and also Masti-2.
