Is Rajkumar Hirani’s, Aamir Khan- Madhavan- Sharman Joshi- Kareena Kapoor mega hit 3 Idiots going to be remade in Tamil and Telugu?
The
grapevine is abuzz that Gemini Film Circuit (GFC) is in advanced state of negotiations to buy the rights at a new record price for a
remake.
Remember that GFC had a few years back remade Munnabhai MBBS into Kamal Hassan’s Vasool Raja MBBS in Tamil and in Telugu as
Chiranjeevi’s Shankar Dada MBBS after buying remake rights from the same 3 Idiots producers Vidhu Vinod Chopra and director Rajkumar
Hirani?
Says Mano Akkineni, of GFC: “Yes we are negotiating with Vinod and Raju for the remake rights of 3 Idiots. But nothing has been
firmed up including the star cast.” Most of Kollywoods leading men like Suriya, Vikram, and Vijay has seen the film and have appreciated it.
Madhavan who played an important role in the original has said that he is willing to do the same role in Tamil.
However the big stars in
Kollywood are unlikely to do 3 Idiots in Tamil, as it is basically a multi starrer, with Madhavan and Sharman Joshi having equal footing. Another
reason is that only mass action movies (Sivaji, Dasavatharam etc) turn hits in south and films based on human relationships do only business in
multiplexes. Tamil films and its heroes cater to mass masala audiences in B & C towns.
