Simbu - His Interest On Tollywood
One of the most promising youngsters in Tamil cinema is Silambarasan, or Simbu as he is widely known. As an adult, his first few films did not set the box office on fire, but his last release Manmadhan (based on a story by Simbu himself) was both critically and commercially appreciated. As per the media sources, Little Superstar Simbu will do the remake of Bhadra in Tamil. Bhadra is a super hit in Telugu that has Raviteja and Meera Jasmine in the lead and is produced by Dil Raju. K.S.Ravikumar will direct this in Tamil for Devayani Films' Amudha Dorairaj. Simbu, who started his Vallavan recently, will start on this film shortly.
Simbu, who already gave a hit in Telugu with Manmadha (dubbing of Manmadhan), is another Tamil hero that the producers are after for dubbing his films. Recently his Thotti Jaya is a hit at the boxoffice. Gopika is the heroine in this film. Dorai is the director. It is interesting to know that earlier reports talked about Suresh productions bagging the remake rights of this film. Though Thotti Jaya was in production for quite sometime (even giving the speculation that the project might have been shelved), it came out and proved successful for Simbu at the box office. Satish Film Corp. is dubbing this film into Telugu as Jalakanta. Producer Satish said that he had to put up a tough fight to get the dubbing rights of this film.
