Victory Venkatesh will be starring in the Telugu remake of Tamil critically acclaimed and commercially hit film Asuran that starred Dhanush in lead. Suresh Babu in association with original producer Kalaipuli S Thanu will bankroll the project. Since director Vetrimaaran is busy with other commitments, the producer are looking for a director to helm the Telugu version.
As per a buzz, Tv anchor turned director Ohmkar is likely to direct Asuran remake. In fact, he approached Venky for Raju Gari Gadhi 3, but the actor said no owing to his busy schedules. Ohmkar even expressed his confidence to direct Venkatesh in Raju Gari Gadhi. However, he is offered to direct Asuran remake. Official announcement will be made once Ohmkar signs the dotted line.
Ohmkar’s recent outing Raju Gari Gadhi 3 is turning out to be a flop. On the other hand, Venkatesh will next be seen in Venky Mama where he will be seen sharing screen space with his Menalludu Naga Chaitanya.
