The Kannada movie is all set for remakes in other languages. While the film is being dubbed in Telugu and Malayalam, there is a huge demand for the remake rights in Tamil and Bollywood. The makers of the film are yet to decide whether to sell the remake rights of Tamil version, as Sudeep has got a decent market in Tamil Nadu after Naan Ee, the Kollywood version of blockbuster Telugu film Eega.
On the other end, a couple of Bollywood producers have approached Bachchan producer Uday K Mehta for the remake rights. Prominent among them is Ketan Rawal, who is willing to make the film with Ajay Devgn.
A source said, "Ketal Rawal has the dates of Ajay Devgn. So, he is planning to remake it with him. According to him, the role played by Sudeep perfectly suits him. And considering the success rate of Devgn in remake films, the producer does not have a second thought about offering the film to the Bollywood actor."
