Dhanush’s next film is a remake of the 1989 super hit Rajinikanth film Maapillai with the same title.
The film, (often referred to as Padikkathavan-2) is going to be directed by Suraaj and produced by Hitesh Jabak.
Says Dhanush: “It is the only film of Rajinikanth that I always wanted to remake. I know that remaking old classics is not easy and by doing so, we are not disrespecting them. There are hundreds of youngsters who have not seen the old movie. If the same story is presented in a different format with improved technology, it will appeal to them”.
The buzz is that Suraaj is making the necessary changes to suit today’s youth audiences with more comedy. The hunt for the characters made memorable in the original by Srividya and Amala, are in full swing.
The basic concept of the film is based on Shakespeare’s immortal play “Taming of the Shrew”, which has a universal appeal, if presented well.
Dhanush also adds that, Maapillai will be the last and only film which he will be remaking from the Rajinikanth library of old classic..
