By Ramchander
The
huge
success
of
Dookudu
has
created
a
new
market
for
Mahesh
Babu
in
Tamil
Nadu.
This
in
turn
made
the
distributors
to
come
forward
to
buy
the
Tamil
rights
of
the
actor's
forthcoming
movie
The
Businessman.
Now,
we
hear
that
the
rights
have
been
bagged
by
none
other
than
Gnanavel
Raja.
Noted
producer
Gnanavel
Raja,
who
is
a
cousin
of
actors
Surya
and
Karthi,
has
acquired
the
rights
of
The
Businessman
for
a
reasonably
good
price,
says
a
source.
He
is
all
set
to
release
the
film
on
his
banner
Studio
Green
in
Tamil
Nadu
on
January
13.
However,
the
movie
will
face
tough
competition
from
straight
Tamil
movies
like
Shankar's
Nanban
and
Lingusamy's
Vettai.
It
is
also
said
that
Gnanavel
Raja
has
also
bought
the
Tamil
remake
rights
of
The
Businessman.
However,
the
craze
for
Mahesh
Babu's
movies
started
after
the
release
of
Dookudu,
which
made
good
business
in
Chennai
and
also
holds
the
record
of
highest
grossing
Telugu
movie
in
Tamil
Nadu.
Mahesh
Babu
and
Kajal
Aggarwal
starrer
The
Businessman
is
coming
with
the
tagline,
'Guns
don't
need
arguments'.
The
movie
is
directed
by
Puri
Jagannath.
