Dil Raju is one of the smartest and wittiest producers in the Telugu film industry.In recent times, Dil Raju indulged in purchasing remake rights of blockbuster films in other languages and making them here in Telugu without much star cast.
This is the first time; he is coming with a remake film.The upcoming film ‘Jaanu’ starring Sharwanand and Samantha in lead roles is an official remake of Tamil classic ‘96’ that had Trisha and Vijay Sethupathi in lead roles.
The movie is all set to hit the screens tomorrow.
The film’s pre-release business fetched Rs 21 Crores.
‘The film’s pre-release business crossed the Rs 20 Crore-mark.This is an excellent response from buyers.
If the film can receive decent to good reviews in the opening weekend, it will surely be a safe bet for the buyers.Currently, Samantha is having a great market in Tollywood and Sharwanand has his fan base.
In its lifetime Jaanu can collect a share of Rs 30 Crores’, said a trade analyst.Tollywood circles opined that Dil Raju is taking a risk by remaking a film that achieved the ‘classic’ status.
C Prem Kumar, who directed the original version in Tamil, is helming the Telugu version too.
