That
Karan
Johar
is
launching
Vijay
Deverakonda
in
Bollywood
is
known
to
all.
The
Dharma
Productions
head
honcho
is
so
impressed
with
the
young
Telugu
actor
that
he
has
been
taking
a
lot
of
interest
in
his
acting
career
lately.
Apart
from
that,
Johar
is
remaking
his
film,
Dear
Comrade,
in
Hindi
though
it
didn't
fare
exceptionally
well
at
the
South
box
office.
Nonetheless,
Karan
loved
the
intense
love
story
and
was
blown
away
by
Vijay
and
Rashmika
Mandanna's
performance
in
the
film.
After
watching
the
movie,
KJo
took
to
social
media
and
praised
the
entire
team
of
Dear
Comrade
along
with
announcing
the
Hindi
remake.
In
fact,
Karan
wanted
Vijay
to
play
the
lead
in
the
Hindi
version
as
well
but
the
latter
rejected
the
offer.
While
the
Dear
Comrade
remake
is
yet
to
go
on
floors,
according
to
a
report
in
123telugu.com,
Karan
Johar
has
also
bought
the
remake
rights
of
Vijay's
recent
release,
World
Famous
Lover.
Yes,
you
heard
that
right!
Though
Vijay
went
all
out
to
promote
his
last
outing,
the
film
still
failed
miserably
at
the
box
office.
So
much
so
that
many
distributors
lost
money
and
ultimately
Deverakonda
was
asked
to
return
his
fee.
However,
Karan
seems
to
be
unfazed
by
the
whole
debacle
or
else
why
would
he
plan
to
remake
a
flop
film
in
Hindi,
right
guys?
Though
the
Kuch
Kuch
Hota
Hai
director
hasn't
confirmed
the
news,
it
will
be
interesting
to
see
who
will
be
roped
in
to
play
the
lead
in
case
the
Telugu
movie
actually
gets
a
Hindi
version.
At
the
moment,
Karan
is
producing
is
Vijay's
Pan-India
film
Fighter
which
is
being
helmed
by
noted
South
filmmaker
Puri
Jagannadh.
The
action
drama
also
features
Ananya
Panday
in
the
lead.
