It
is
known
to
all
that
the
Malayalam
hit,
Ayyappanum
Koshiyum,
is
now
being
remade
in
Telugu
and
Tamil.
Not
too
long
ago,
we
had
reported
that
Nandamuri
Balakrishna
and
Rana
Daggubati
might
come
together
for
the
Telugu
version
of
filmmaker
Sachy's
action-thriller.
While
we
hear
Rana
has
given
his
nod
for
the
project
and
is
very
much
part
of
the
remake,
Balakrishna,
on
the
other
hand,
won't
be
starring
in
the
movie.
Production
banner
Haarika
&
Hassine
Creations,
who
have
bought
the
Telugu
remake
rights
of
Ayyappanum
Koshiyum,
apparently
think
that
Balakrishna
isn't
the
right
fit
for
the
lead
role
along
with
Rana.
According
to
a
report
in
Telugu360.com,
the
makers
have
decided
to
get
someone
else
on
board
and
they
have
already
started
looking
at
other
contenders.
The
same
report
also
states
that
Suresh
Productions
recently
joined
the
project
and
will
be
bankrolling
the
film
along
with
Haarika
&
Hassine
Creations.
In
fact,
Suresh
Babu,
owner,
distributor
and
managing
director
of
Suresh
Productions,
has
taken
the
onus
on
himself
to
sign
the
other
male
lead
for
their
movie.
While
Suresh
Babu
was
asked
to
consider
Venkatesh
for
the
Telugu
remake,
the
producer
feels
he
too
isn't
the
right
choice
for
the
film.
So
this
means
we'll
have
to
wait
a
little
longer
to
find
out
who
will
star
in
the
Telugu
version
of
Ayyappanum
Koshiyum
along
with
Rana
Daggubati.
The
makers
will
soon
be
finalizing
the
director
as
well.
Talking
about
Balakrishna,
at
the
moment,
he
has
Boyapati
Srinu's
directorial
venture
on
his
plate
which
is
said
to
be
an
absolute
mass
entertainer.
Reports
claim
that
Shriya
Saran
and
Nayanthara
will
also
make
their
presence
felt
in
this
untitled
project.
