A film released with below par expectations emerged as a sensational blockbuster in Telugu last year and it is Vijay Devarakonda, Ritu Varma starrer ‘Pelli Choopulu’ from debutant director Tharun Bhascker backed by D. Suresh Babu. After a stiff competition to bag the remake rights in other regional languages, Gautham Menon bagged the Tamil rights.
Hiking up the zero star cast value in ‘Pelli Choopulu,’ the talented film maker reportedly roped in Tamanna for female lead in Tamil version. To be directed by Menon’s long time associate Senthil Veera Samy, very soon the project would be rolled onto sets.
It would be interesting to see Tamanna getting into Ritu Varma shoes because both of them are poles apart when it comes to stardom. To all our known information, milk beauty had a dream run last year with ‘Oopiri, Dharma Durai’ and ‘Abhinetri’ while ‘Queen’ is one more ambitious remake signed and there is also ‘Bahubali 2’ set for release in this year. Indeed, a promising lineup.
