Quick bucks is the name of the game. Take the remake hits from Malayalam and rehash them with a big here and an ordinary director. Add some glitter with Trivikram. The result is a box office hit and later sell it to OTT.
Earn megabucks in no time. That is the order of the day. Bheemla Naik is the latest example. Now Trivikram has chosen one more remake from Samuthirakhani and the hero is Pawan Kalyan.
Pawan Kalyan given limited time is earning crores with this kind of strategy. The mentor is producing the movie indirectly with his relatives and he is also charging more than the direction amount for screenplay and dialogues.
It is a win-win situation for all. The movies are a proven hit in other languages and we have to change it to our nativity. Give some local songs and Thaman music.
One song gives all the steam and publicity for the movie. The rest is counting the money. Trivikram and Thaman are giving opportunities to some new singers and lyric writers apart from this, here they are saving a lot of money.
First Suresh Babu and Venkatesh used to go for remakes and get hits. Now Chiranjeevi is after remakes. He is doing Godfather of Mohanlal. The megastar is also doing another remake of Ajith.
So remakes are the order of the day.
