Remake Rimbola!!!

Now that all the Third generation heroes from big families have made their mark strongly at the Tollywood Box-office, it’s natural desire for these youngsters to see themselves in their father/grandfather’s shoes. These future stars are very eager in remaking the yesteryear classics.

Let’s have a sneak peak on their wish list…And immediate remakes that are in planning phase…

Gundamma Katha...

Recently both NTR and Nagachaitanya gave a nod to act in the roles of their grandfathers respectively in “Gundamma Katha”. Great actors like NTR, ANR, SV Ranga Rao, SuryaKantham, Savithri and Jamuna acted in this movie. It truly is a classic multistarrer which stands beside “MayaBazaar” and “Missamma”.

And Suresh Production is already keenly doing the groundwork on this script and the only major hurdle is who can be ‘Gundamma’. Hmmm yes its Surya Kantham that has brought life to that role and of course its fact that still people are afraid to name their kids “Surya Kantham” thanks to her inexorable mother-in-law roles. It’s hard to find her in any artiste…May be RamyaKrishna partially suits the role .Let’s watch out how things shape up and this would be a good one to remake. Forgot to Say the songs like “Lechindi..mahila lokam”, “Prema yaatralaku” etc are still very strong in hearts of music lovers.

Paatala Bhairavi...in 3D!!

Then there is latest news of “PatalaBhairavi” getting remade …and that too in 3D. PatalaBhairavi is a folk story of Thota Ramudu(NTR) who falls in love with Princess of Ujjain. Eventually he falls in trap of a “Nepali Mantrikudu”(SV Ranga Rao) .How the hero manages to kill the sorcerer and win the hand of princess is all the movie about. That was first of its kind and is really a great choice to remake. Dailogues/Songs like “Sahasam seyara Dimbaka” “Prema kosamai valalo padeney Paapam Pasivaadu” were very popular.

Putting in use the latest technology, this classic can turn into visual grandeur in 3D. And may be without second thought, one would think of Rajamouli to direct the same. And it would be nice choice for the “NTR-Rajamouli” combo. Well this was rough wish and let’s see what happens.

Wish list of Youngstars...

Well that’s not the end...Ask any one of the young heartthrobs today, they have the cheers on their faces to reveal the movie they wish to remake.RamCharanTej wants to see himself as Khaidi…While Rana loves to act in remake or sequel of Bobbili Raja.NTR dies to redo the act of the senior in Dana veera Sura Karna…And last but not the least Manchu Manoj likes M.DharmaRaju MA, while Vishnu prefers Rayalaseema Ramanna Chowdary. Let’s have a chat some other time...when these wishes are about to take form

Tough task...

Reinventing a classic is of course a thorny task. Not only that the comparisons with their ancestors do arise, it is very important that utmost care should be taken to preserve the magnitude of the yesteryear classic and same time tune the story to amuse current audience. Else they might bit the mud like either “Marocharithra” or “Pandurangadu”…
