Mass Maharaj & Tillu Working Together For A Remake!

Update: 2022-11-12 11:33 GMT
With the OTT platforms becoming popular all over the country, people are getting exposed to content from various languages and they are watching good films with the help of subtitles. This led to a huge downfall in the market for remakes. With people already watching the original versions, they are not keen on viewing the remakes and they start comparing them with the originals which will not benefit the filmmakers at all. But some makers are still adamant about making remakes.

Interestingly, this is about a film whose Telugu dubbed version is already available on an OTT platform. We are talking about Simbu's super hit time loop drama 'Maanadu' directed by Venkat Prabhu. As we know, the remake rights were bought long back and Harish Shankar who is known for handling remakes very well is working on the script changes. The 'Gabbar Singh' is known to give a native touch and add a few scenes that appeal to the masses. His biggest hits 'Gabbar Singh' and 'Gaddalakonda Ganesh' were remakes.

Apparently, Harish almost wrapped up his work and 'Maanadu' remake will be directed by Dasarath who is known for movies like 'Santosham' and 'Mr. Perfect'. The class family director's last two movies 'Greeku Veerudu' and 'Shaurya' turned out to be huge disasters. He took a long gap after that and he is now gearing up to handle the megaphone for this remake as per reports.

What's even more intriguing is the fact that the lead actors are going to be Ravi Teja and Siddhu Jonnalagadda. Sources claim that Ravi Teja will be seen playing Simbu's role while Siddhu gets to play the character brilliantly portrayed by SJ Surya in the original. The news has not been announced officially and people are eager to find out how this remake works out, especially with appealing lead stars but an out-of-form director. Let us wait and see what happens.
