Nadiya Moidu to replace Gautami in Papanasam 2 ?

There are reports about Kamal Haasan planning to remake ‘Drishyam 2’ in Tamil. It must be remembered that he had starred in the remake of ‘Drishyam’ first part as well. Titled as ‘Papanasam’, it was directed by Jeethu Joseph. Gautami played the role of Kamal’s wife in it. The two actors were in a live-in relationship during that time. However, they chose to part ways an year after the film’s release. Since they are no longer together and don’t have cordial relations, it is learnt that Gautami won’t be a part of ‘Papanasam 2’.

Earlier there were reports about Meena replacing Gautami in the second part. But latest buzz is that Nadiya Moidu is in talks to play the female lead. Kamal, who has shared screen space with almost all the 80s and 90s actresses in South, has still not worked with Nadiya. This is said to be the reason why she has been approached for ‘Papanasam 2’. An official confirmation regarding her casting is awaited.

It is worth a mention that Nadiya Moidu is also part of the Telugu remake of ‘Drishyam 2’. She is reprising Asha Sarath’s IG character from the orginal.
