Ayyappanum Koshiyum Telugu remake; Release date announced

Shoot for the Telugu remake of hit Malayalam film ‘Ayyappanum Koshiyum’ is currently progressing at a brisk pace. Saagar K Chandra is directing the film that has Pawan Kalyan and Rana Daggubati as the leads. It is produced by Sithara Entertainments, one of the leading banners in Telugu industry. The makers have announced January 12, 2022 as the theatrical release.

Tollywood is set to witness a huge box office clash as two other biggies are scheduled for release during the same period. The makers of Prabhas starrer ‘Radhe Shyam’ have already confirmed January 14, 2022 as their release date. Mahesh Babu starrer ‘Sarkaru Vaari Paata’ is also slated to hit screens during the same Sankranti period. It remains to be seen if any of these films get a change in plans to avoid a clash.

‘Ayyappanum Koshiyum’ Telugu version has Pawan Kalyan reprising the cop’s role played by Biju Menon and Rana essaying the part played by Prithviraj. Trivikram Srinivas has adapted the Telugu version’s screenplay and dialogues. Ravi K Chandran is the cinematographer and Thaman S is composing the music.
