I was approached for the remake of Maniyara,' the yesteryear film that starred actors Mammootty and Seema in the lead.
Mammootty came on board unexpectedly. 'Uncle,' which I am co-producing with Sajai Sebastian, was meant to be a low-budget film and we had almost cast another actor in the titular role. But, during the shoot of 'Puthan Panam,' I narrated the film's plot to Mammootty, who liked it and wanted to do the movie.
I was keen to direct an action film, and when Reliance approached me for the remake of Singham, I saw an opportunity to return to my first love.
I was keen to direct an action film, and when Reliance approached me for the remake of 'Singham,' I saw an opportunity to return to my first love.
The very first film I ever made, when I was seven years old, when I got my hands on a camcorder, was a remake of 'Poltergeist,' which I hadn't seen yet because my parents wouldn't allow me to. But I made my own version of it, and it starred my brother in a bed sheet.
Every film is a remake of a previous film, or a remake of a television series that everyone loved in the 1960s, or a remake of a television series that everyone hated in the 1960s. Or it's a theme park ride; it will soon come to breakfast cereal mascots.
It will be an honor to work in the remake of Rajinikanth sir's film. I will be producing as well as acting in the remake of his film 'Moondru Mugam.' I'm a huge fan of his film and I'm really excited to be part of the project.
Size Zero' tells the story of a woman and the challenges and body shaming that she faces on a daily basis. I wrote the dialogues of that film, and I was approached for a remake. But I had already said what I wanted to say.
Released in 1967, 'Farz' was the remake of a Telegu film that was turned down by most actors of the time - Manoj Kumar, Shashi Kapoor, Dharmendra... I was the needy and greedy one then and signed the film gladly.
It's true I was approached for 'Heroine' but I couldn't do the film as the dates were clashing with Kamaleswar Mukherjee's film 'Meghe Dhaka Tara' based on the life of Ritwik Ghatak, where I played the lead.
In Santhosh Sethumadhavan's remake of the yesteryear hit, Chattakkari,' I was required to wear short skirts and frocks as I play an Anglo-Indian girl in it. But my role as Julie is hardly a show of glamour.
Back in the day, I was keen on working on a film with the superstars - Mammootty and Mohanlal. But they wanted me to make a film with them in Tamil.
If you are going to remake a film, you may as well remake a classic.
I think if you're going to remake a film it should be something that was a good idea, but wasn't executed well. There isn't anything I would like to remake. I have too many of my own ideas I want to make.
MAMMOOTTY has presented an outstanding performance in film'New Delhi'
Oh yes, I've been approached to do all sorts of nonsense. How about a remake of 'West Side Story?'
