The
Tamil
film
Paruthi
Veeran
was
a
runaway
hit.
The
film
stars
Surya's
brother
Karthi
in
the
lead.
The
role
is
of
a
ruffian
who
is
a
drunkard
and
a
loafer.
Karthi
did
an
admirable
job.
Manchu
Vishnu
is
keen
to
do
the
role
in
the
Telugu
remake.
But
it
is
doubtful
if
Vishnu
can
carry
off
the
role.
Priyamani
bagged
the
best
actress
award
for
this
film.
She
will
play
the
female
lead
in
the
Telugu
version
too.
