This type of film works in the South, but not in the North. I think this will flop like the Hindi version of Run.


I think it will work well with someone like Hrithik not Abhishek. Really depends on the director. With Santoshi it will be good

For autograph, you need someone who is not popular, probably a surprise hero would be a better hit than SKR/Hrithik shaking their head and tell the story.

Re okkadu, no matter who act, hindi action movies are sure to be a flop. Telugu/Tamil action doesnt go well with hindi audiances. What will work well in hindi is movies like

Lesa Lesa
Jay Jay
Nala Damayanthi - I heard Madhavan is producing/action in this in hindi

The above movies are flop/didnt do well in Tamil.

for hindi movie to be success, you need a huge house, filled with decorations, some 30 to 40 people in the back ground and few millionares talking in the foreground, few songs (recent trend seems to be songs similar to 50s and 60s). Its very rare to see hindi movie which doesnt fall on this category to succeed.

Likewise for tamil you need, an action here, an action heroine, a seperate comedy track, some good weapons, specially the ones which are ancient and kept comfortably behind your color, shouting of one over the other, very fast/peppy song with bad lyrics and most importantly no logic/story.

I know few people will respond to this, but then the no. of movies which doesnt fall on this category and yet succeed are very small. In Tamil, Autograph, Kadhal. Thats it. In hindi Munna Bhai MBBS thats it.

You could be describing a telugu film here for the most part

This one takes the cake. I used to hate fighting scenes with guns. Now with the proliferation of sickles, knifes etc, I am ready to beg for those guns to be brought back

Didn't know if this reply should be in this topic, did a search on 'remake' & this topic looked good (by the title) :mrgreen:
