It's known that Ace Director Mani Ratnam's latest super-hit romance flick O Kadhal Kanmani (OK Bangaram) is currently being remade in Bollywood as OK Jannu. Now we learn that another super hit film directed by Mani Ratnam decades ago is now going to Bollywood.
Prabhu, Karthik, Amala, Nirosha starrer Agni Natchathiram (dubbed into Telugu as Gharshana) that released in 1988 and turned out to be a super hit, is going to be remade in Hindi by popular director Bejoy Nambiar of Shaitan and David fame.
The filmmaker has apparently met the veteran director at his home in Chennai recently and obtained the remake rights.
Interestingly, the film had been remade into Hindi as Vansh back then.
The shooting of Agni Natchathiram remake is expected to begin soon. The official announcement on the project will precede that.
