Bichagadu Remake Not So Easy There

Bollywood production houses remaking hit south films is very common these days but the success percentage is reasonably low. Why a hit south film doesn't work in Bollywood? It's the nativity issue and the 'Lost in Translation' syndrome.

Fox Star Studios has now acquired the Hindi remake rights of Bichagadu (Pichaikkaran in Tamil) and is mulling over to start the shooting once the casting is done.

It is well known that Bichagadu had a sensational run at the box office in the Telugu and Tamil speaking states. Directed by Sasi, Bichagadu stars Vijay Antony in lead role. The film produced on a shoestring budget by Vijay Antony himself under his home banner has become one of the highest grossing films of this year.

Now, the question is will the subject, especially the southern flavor, of Bichagadu be embraced by North audiences? Considering people of south and North have different sensibilities and tastes, movie analysts opine that there is very less chance of Bichagadu working in North with the core point getting lost in translation. They opine that remaking Bichagadu is plain murder of a classic southern film.
