One more in the pipeline

The Telugu industry seems too bitten by the remake bug.

After the confirmation of the news that Tirupachi is being remade in Telugu with Pawan Kalyan in the lead, the buzz in the industry is that another Tamil movie Sivakasi is alls set for being remade here.

Well, the irony here is that it is Tamil hero Vijay's films that are being remade here.

Vijay, it should be said, has made a career out of remaking big Telugu hits in Tamil.

From Okkadu to Athanokkade, Vijay has successfully remade many Telugu hits.

Now after it was decided that his Tirupachi will be remade as Annavaram with Pawan Kalyan in the lead, his Sivakasi, which was released for Diwali, would be remade again with Pawan playing the hero.

Pawan had earlier done Vijay's Kushi in Telugu. Incidentally, A M Rathinam was the producer then. He is the producer again too.

Rathinam it is said is very keen to do Sivakasi in Telugu. He is also keen on Pawan.

But the star is yet to give the nod.

Watch this space for more.
