After Kamal Haasan’s Papanasam, which was the remake of Malayalam hit Drishyam, looks like it is Rajinikanth’s turn to repeat the act. The Superstar will be seen reprising Mammootty in the Tamil remake of last year’s Malayalam blockbuster Bhaskar the Rascal, which had Nayanthara as the female lead.
Directed by Siddique, the film was a huge hit and the director in a recent interview to a popular vernacular magazine has confirmed that he will be directing the remake of Bhaskar… with Rajinikanth in the lead role. Siddique previously remade some of his hits in Tamil with the most prominent ones being Vijay’s Friends and Kaavalan.
BTR is the story of two different divorced single parents, falling in love and getting united in marital bliss with the help of their respective children. After Rajini completes his present projects namely Kabali and 2.O, the Superstar is expected to join Siddique in 2017 if all goes well. This should be something to look out for, indeed!
