Tamil sex-caper Kadhal Kadhai remade as 'Manmadhulu'

Kadhal Kadhai is a film that was harangued for its hypocritical lamentation of women being viewed as sex objects even while committing the sin of sexualisation of the fairer sex. As if it is a Mrugam (which came up with a sensible message), it is being remade into Telugu! Titled Manmadhulu, the film is directed by Velu Raja, Athiroopan and Preethi Rangayani in the lead.

However, one does not know if Manmadhulu, the Telugu title, is going to come up with the same blase and titillating stuff. Though going by the stills released so far, one cannot have hopes that it will be different from its original version, one can still be otimistic that it will not repeat the follies of Kadhal Kadhai.

The bad news is that there are many films that are coming with the self-accorded title of rendering a message, but what is shown inside is simply nonsense. Pray that Manmadhulu does not fall in this category.
