No Room For These Movies In Tollywood Anymore!
X
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.

A lot of movies in other languages are getting directly dubbed and released in theatres. There are some movies that were dubbed in Telugu but the Tollywood makers went ahead and remade them which is quite inexplicable. It looks like there is no room for such movies anymore as people are not at all interested in remakes since they are getting to watch the original either through dubbing or with the help of subtitles.

On the eve of Dasara, Megastar Chiranjeevi arrived with 'Godfather' which is a remake of the Malayalam flick 'Lucifer'. The makers made some necessary changes to suit the local nativity and the movie garnered a positive response on Day 1 too. The movie's unit held success celebrations too but the collections were definitely not up to the mark. In the end, the movie ended up with minor losses according to trade pundits. 'Bheemla Nayak' which arrived as the remake of the Malayalam project 'Ayyappanum Koshiyum' got positive talk right from the first shows. Being a Pawan Kalyan film, it got huge openings but the collections dried up from the second day itself and it ended up as an average venture.

Another remake that met with the same result is Vishwak Sen's 'Ori Devuda'. This remake of the Tamil movie 'Oh My Kaduvule'. Dubbing films like 'Kantara' and 'Sardar' are getting more money than this remake. Seems like the idea of remakes is slowly getting expired. Thanks to the pan-Indian market, people are in no mood to watch remakes and are directly watching originals.
