Dulquer Salmaan most likely to play the lead in Pavithram’s Tamil remake
The TK Rajeev Kumar directorial ‘Pavithram’ is widely regarded as one of the classics in Malayalam cinema. The movie starring Mohanlal, Srividya, Thilakan and Shobhana was way ahead of its time. Scripted by P Balachandran, the movie discussed the issue of a middle-aged couple having a child much to the disappointment of their adult sons. Mohanlal’s splendid performance, rated as one of his finest ever, won him a Filmfare award for Best Actor.
If reports are to be believed, 25 years after its release, the movie is getting a Tamil version. The makers are considering to rope in either Dulquer Salmaan or Sivakarthikeyan to play the lead. It is worth a mention that the Ayushmann Khurrana starrer ‘Badhaai Ho’, one of the biggest blockbusters in Bollywood last year, was also loosely based on ‘Pavithram’.
The success of ‘Badhaai Ho’ has clearly been an inspiration for the Tamil remake. The makers firmly believe that the story still has relevance and will connect to the audience in today’s age as well. Along with the Tamil remake, a Telugu version is also on the cards. An official announcement is expected to be made shortly.
