Asuran: Venkatesh Having A Tough Time Finding Director For Its Telugu Remake?

Kollywood film Asuran which released a month back in theatres is having a good run at the box office. Post its release in the span of fewer than two weeks the Tamil superstar Dhanush starrer garnered a whopping 100 crores. Tollywood actor Venkatesh who caught up with the film recently was left so awestruck that he will soon be reprising Dhanush’s role in the Telugu remake.

Reportedly, the actor, and the producer Suresh Babu who will be bankrolling the Telugu remake of Asuran is having a tough time finding a director who can direct the film.

As reports, the actor-producer duo of Venkatesh and Suresh had approached director Tharun Bhascker, but following his busy schedule, the latter rejected the offer. Filmmaker Vetrimaaran who made the original film too was approached by Suresh, but the former showed the least interest in making the remake of his own film.

Now as per the latest reports, Suresh early this week held a special screening of the original film for young upcoming directors. But then again the response which he got from the young budding filmmakers have only left him thinking what next, as many felt that the film is way too intense, some felt that only an experienced director can pull off the remake and the remaining had self-doubt whether or not they can make it possible.
