Ram Charans Condition To Do A Remake In Future!
X
Mega Power Star Ram Charan has not acting in a lot of remakes. The only film he remade as 'Thani Oruvan'. This action thriller was remade as 'Dhruva' in Telugu by Surender Reddy and it was a very good hit. But he has been producing a lot of remakes under his banner. He made 'Khaidi No 150' with his dad Chiranjeevi and everyone knows that it is a remake of Vijay's 'Kaththi'. Now, he co-produced 'Godfather' which is a remake of 'Lucifer' starring Mohanlal.

During an interview with Hindustan Times, he talked about remakes. He said, "I've recently released a movie, Godfather. It's a remake of Mohanlal's Lucifer. The film was widely watched on OTT. It did about Rs 145 crore to Rs 150 crore. Yes we will lose a big chunk of the audience who have already seen the original film on OTT. The audiences might not want to come to theatres to watch the remake. Maybe the charisma of the star, star power would also have dragged the people back to theatres even though they have seen. But will that formula always work? I'd say no. I don't know if I'd continue doing a lot of remakes."

Talking about him acting in remakes, he told, "If I do a remake, I'd probably ask the producer of the original to not release it on OTT. On those conditions, I may do a remake. If I've seen a movie in theatres and if I like it, I might request him not release on OTT. Maybe I'll be interested. Otherwise, going forward, we'd all prefer to do original scripts."

He opened up about his prestigious 15th film under legendary filmmaker Shankar's direction. He stated, "I've been seeing Mr Shankar since 1992. He is a maverick filmmaker. Shankar is a visionary. I know Rajamouli also once said Shankar was the first pan India director we had. I'm very fortunate to bag this opportunity to work with director Shankar. I thank my God. I've been learning a lot from him. For me, it's not like doing a movie. It's like going back to school. He is not just a maverick filmmaker, he is a marketing genius as well. He knows best when to make an announcement and reveal the film's first look. Like all fans, I am even excited and waiting for him to reveal the first look."

Talking about the sudden rise of pan-Indian culture, he opined, "I think let's remove all the Pans and everything. We should all of us from Akshay sir to all our colleagues who are working in Tollywood and Bollywood, we should remove all the woods now and make it Indian cinema and Indian actors. On Wikipedia if you open it, it shouldn't say South or Tamil or Malayalam or Gujarati or Bengali film. It should say Ram Charan, an Indian actor. And Akshay Kumar, an Indian actor, not a Bollywood actor. And all our colleagues in the industry. We're part of this beautiful change. I hope it happens very very soon."
