Mahesh
Babu
and
Puri
Jagannath,
who
delivered
blockbuster
Pokiri
in
2006,
will
join
hands
again.
Well,
we
are
not
talking
about
The
Businessman,
their
second
combo
movie
that
is
under
production,
but
about
their
third
project!
Yes,
if
reports
are
to
be
believed,
they
will
team
up
again
for
the
remake
of
Telugu
blockbuster
Khaidi.
Megastar
Chiranjeevi's
1983s
Khaidi
has
been
in
the
news
from
the
past
few
years.
Earlier,
speculations
were
rife
that
his
son
Ram
Charan
Teja
would
star
in
the
remake
of
the
Telugu
blockbuster.
However,
the
latest
buzz
is
that
Puri
Jagannath
will
be
remaking
it
with
Mahesh
Babu
in
the
lead
role.
The
trend
of
remaking
successful
yesteryear
movies
are
working
wonders
in
the
Bollywood.
Likewise,
Puri
Jagannath
believes
that
it
could
create
the
same
magic
in
the
Telugu
film
industry.
However,
neither
the
filmmaker
nor
the
Dookudu
star
has
confirmed
the
news.
Khaidi
is
a
revenge
drama,
which
was
inspired
by
Hollywood
movie
First
Blood.
The
movie
featured
Chiranjeevi,
Madhavi
and
Sumalatha
in
the
lead
roles.
It
was
written
by
Paruchuri
Brothers
and
directed
by
A
Kodandarami
Reddy.
