Shruthi
Haasan,
the
busy
bee
of
South
Indian
movie
industry,
is
reprising
the
character
Malar,
played
by
Sai
Pallavi,
in
the
Telugu
remake
of
Premam.
The
locations
stills
have
been
going
viral
on
social
media.
However,
Malayali
audiences
and
the
other
language
audiences
who
have
watched
the
original
movie,
are
not
in
a
mood
to
accept
Shruti
Haasan
the
new
Malar.
It
is
evident
from
the
way
how
Shruti
has
been
trolled
by
the
social
media.
It
is
true
that
the
first
look
of
Shruti
as
Malar
is
quite
disappointing.
The
team
has
decided
to
give
the
character
a
modern
look;
to
the
much
displeasure
of
the
audiences
who
are
still
deeply
in
love
with
the
character.
Malar
is
a
character
which
is
truly
special
in
all
means.
Interestingly,
the
character
was
kept
as
a
secret
till
the
release
Premam,
and
the
team
hasn't
even
included
the
name
of
Sai
Pallavi
in
the
star
cast
before
the
release.
It
is
the
surprise
element
which
made
the
character
more
and
more
special.
But
in
the
Telugu
version,
the
team
has
already
announced
the
entire
star
cast
and
chose
not
to
keep
any
of
the
surprise
elements
from
the
original.
The
fans
point
out
that
Shruti
cannot
match
the
graceful,
earthy
looks
and
mannerisms
of
the
character,
as
she
is
an
already
established
glam
diva.
They
argue
that
the
actress
is
also
a
great
disappointment
when
it
comes
to
the
acting
skills.
Naga
Chaitanya
plays
the
central
character,
which
is
essayed
by
Nivin
Pauly
in
the
original.
Anupama
Parameshwaran
reprises
her
role
in
the
remake
as
well.
Regina
Cassandra
is
replacing
Madonna
Sebastian.
Even
though
the
Malayali
fans
are
unhappy
with
the
casting
of
Premam
remake,
it
is
sure
that
the
theme
of
the
movie
is
vibrant
enough
to
attract
audiences
from
all
languages.
We
have
to
wait
and
watch
how
Shruti
deals
with
the
challenge...
Here
are
some
funny
trolls
about
Shruti
Haasan's
Malar...
Have
a
look...
Here
Is
A
Surprise!
Not
only
Malar's;
but
Mary's
looks
are
also
changed
in
the
remake
version.

are
the
candid
pictures
of
Anupama
Parameshwaran
and
Shruti

the
sets.
George's
Expressions!
The
trollers
imagine
that
this
will
be
the
reaction
of
George,
the
character
played
by
Nivin
Pauly,
if
he
watches
Shruti
Haasan's
Malar.
Kalippu
The
trollers
feel
that
this
will
be
the
look
of
Shruti
Haasan
in
the
popular
'Kalippu' song,
if
she
played
the
lead
character
George.
