'Johnny Gaddaar' in Telugu
- IndiaGlitz, [Monday,November 28 2011]
Here is a case of reversal At a time when more and more South Indian films are being remade in Bollywood, hereÂs a Hindi film that is planned to be remade in Telugu.
The movie in question is the critically-acclaimed ÂJohnny Gaddaar which launched Neil Nitin Mukesh in B-town and it starred veteran Dharmendra along with Rimi Sen, Vinay Pathak, Zakir Hussain, Ashwini Khalsekar and Dayanand Shetty.
ÂJohnny GaddaarÂ, which released in 2007, is directed by south filmmaker Sriram Raghavan. Apparently, the talented director chose to make it in Hindi then, and not in Tamil/Telugu, for he felt that the filmÂs genre (crime thriller noir) was thought to be ahead of the times for south audience.
Now the Telugu version of ÂJohnny Gaddaar will have debutante Krishi Arimanda, ÂLagaan fame Gracy Singh, Ashish Vidyarthi, Sai Kumar, Brahmaji, Roja, Ravi Babu and others.
