Producer
Shankare
Gowda
has
acquired
the
rights
of
remaking
the
hit
Tamil
movie
Singam
in
Kannada.
Suriya
and
Anushka
played
the
lead
roles
in
the
original
Tamil
movie.
Actor
Sudeep
has
been
chosen
to
play
the
lead
hero
in
the
Kannada
version
of
the
film,
which
is
titled
Kempe
Gowda.
Actor
turned
director
Sudeep,
who
earlier
directed
Gowda"s
movie
Just
Maath
Maathalli,
will
be
directing
Kempe
Gowda.
The
earlier
movie
starred
Ramya
opposite
Sudeep
himself
and
could
not
do
well
at
the
box
office.
So,
this
could
be
the
compensation
to
the
producer
from
Sudeep.
On
the
other
hand,
Sudeep
has
already
shot
for
the
upcoming
Kannada
movie
Kanwarlal
for
few
days.
So,
would
it
be
possible
for
him
to
continue
with
it
if
he
starts
shooting
for
Kempe
Gowda
both
as
director
and
lead
actor?
Some
other
sources
are
quoted
saying
that
the
content
of
Kempe
Gowda
has
close
similarity
with
that
of
his
earlier
film
Thirupathi,
which
flopped
at
the
box
office.
So,
considering
this
fact,
it
is
really
doubtful
what
will
be
the
ultimate
decision
of
Sudeep.
Kempe
Gowda
was
the
name
of
the
person,
who
founded
Bengaluru.
That
is
why
many
people
believe
that
a
movie
on
his
name
should
have
an
original
subject.
