Venkatesh Next is Remake

When a film is proved to be a hit in any other languages like Tamil or Hindi or Malayalam, our hero Venkatesh will be the first to eye on bagging Telugu remake rights. He has done many remakes in recent past viz. ‘Bodyguard, Masala, Drishyam, Gopala Gopala’ etc and the list seems to be endless with new addition of Tamil film ‘Salim’ into the list. As per a buzz from Dagubati camp, Venky and Suresh Babu liked Vijay Antony and Aksha starrer ‘Salim’ and immediately purchased the remake rights.

Currently, a group of Telugu writers are working day and night to rewrite the script matching the tastes of Telugu audience and adding the local nativity. ‘Salim’ is a 2014 Tamil action thriller directed by NV Nirmal Kumar. If everything goes right, he would direct the Telugu version also.
