Balakrishna Left It for Venkatesh?

Ayyappanum Koshiyum is a super hit Malayalam film which is set to be remade by noted production house Sitara Entertainment. Initially, the filmmakers thought of doing the film with Natasimham Nandamuri Balakrishna as hero. Although Balakrishna showed interest on the project, finally he turned down the film.

It's now rumoured that Victory Venkatesh would do the project and he may reprise the role played by Biju Menon in the original version. Another protagonist role will be essayed by Rana. More details are awaited on the film.

Meanwhile, Venkatesh is working for Naarappa at the moment. Priyamani is playing opposite to him. Manisharma composes music while Srikanth Addala is directing the film under Suresh Productions.
