Initially there were quite a few names that were interested in the
Tamil remake, like Superstar Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan. But as the
events unfolded, Kamal is said to be reprising Mohanlal’s role in Tamil.
While talking about this, director Jeetu Joseph says, “Rajini sir was
interested in the beginning to do the Tamil remake but later withdrew. I
still don’t know the reason”. Jeetu also adds that Rajini is one actor
who does not wish the script to be changed for his sake.
When Behindwoods investigated a little more on this, we found that it
seems Kamal Haasan was very reluctant to take up the remake in the
beginning and he almost had said no to the project. There are
unconfirmed murmurs that Rajini and Kamal might have had a chat over the
remake and probably the former might have suggested to the latter to
take up this challenging project.
It must be noted that even in Malayalam, Mammootty was initially
supposed to do Drishyam before the other superstar Mohanlal took up the
project. History seems to have repeated itself in Tamil too.
Meanwhile in the Tamil remake, Simran is said to be doing the role that
Meena did in Malayalam. Stay tuned for more updates on this!
