The
1988
Tamil
classic
Senthoora
Poove
will
be
remade
in
Telugu
with
an
all
new
cast,
says
producer
Thandra
Grihith,
who
has
got
the
remake
rights
of
the
movie.
Talking
to
IANS,
Thandra
Grihith
said,
"We
are
yet
to
zero
in
on
the
director
since
we're
looking
for
someone
who
could
do
justice
to
the
original.
Meanwhile,
we
are
on
the
verge
of
signing
up
an
all
new
cast
for
the
film.
We
hope
to
start
shooting
from
December." He
added,
"We
also
intend
to
modify
the
original
story
to
suit
the
sensibility
of
the
current
generation.
I'm
extremely
thankful
to
the
producers
of
the
original
for
giving
me
permission
to
remake
the
film."
Senthoora
Poove
featured
Vijayakanth,
Ramki
and
Nirosha
in
important
roles.
Directed
by
PR
Devaraj,
the
movie
had
enjoyed
a
run
of
over
200
days
at
the
Box
Office.
It
was
one
of
the
highest
grosser
Tamil
films
of
the
year
1988.
Thandra
admits
remakes
are
becoming
a
fad.
He
said,
"Remake
trend
is
fast
catching
up,
but
it's
not
always
easy
to
make
them.
One
needs
to
make
them
with
lots
of
responsibility
because
lots
of
expectations
ride
on
them.
The
respect
for
the
original
takes
a
beating
when
its
remake
turns
out
to
be
a
dud."
