Jayam Ravi and Nayantara starrer Thani Oruvan, directed by Ravi's brother M Raja, was released last week (28th August) and is already setting the box office on fire. The psychological thriller opened to unanimously positive reviews from critics and movie goers alike and is also doing well in countries like USA and Australia.
Without a doubt, the ultimate reason for the movie to generate so much of accolades is its strong script and intriguing screenplay. Hence, not surprisingly, Thani Oruvan has already been eyed by Telugu
and Hindi filmmakers who have expressed their interest to bag the remake rights of the flick. Recently, it was reported that famed Hindi actor Salman Khan, along with his team, watched Thani Oruvan and is more than
impressed with the story line. Interestingly, it is being said that plans are on to rope in M Raja to direct the Hindi version of Thani Oruvan. If everything goes well, the Jayam director could well be making his Hindi debut with Salman Khan in the lead.
Also the latest buzz has it that top Telugu actors are being approached to reprise the roles originally portrayed by Jayam Ravi and Arvind Swamy.
