Kamal Haasan ’s yesteryear romantic hit of all time is a memorable movie and the mere mention of its name will evoke nostalgic memories in the minds of people of those times. The blockbuster hit movie is ’Marocharithra’ starring Kamal Haasan and Saritha, directed by K Balachandar. Even though it’s a Telugu film, the movie is well recognized in Tamil too. If the name doesn’t sound familiar, one might rarely be unacquainted with the Bollywood super hit ’Ek Duje Keliye’ featuring Kamal Haasan (once again) and Rati Agnihotri in the lead cast.SP Balasubramaniam sang the chartbuster hit ’Tere Mee Beechume’ composed by veteran music director MS Viswanathan. The tragic love story in the lines of Shakespeare’s classic literature is now being rehashed for the younger generation to be directed by debutant Ravi Yadav, an erstwhile cinematographer of Bollywood films.
The film is being produced simultaneously in Tamil and Telugu by popular Telugu producer ’Dil’ Raju, who earlier made the original Telugu version of films like ’Santosh Subramaniam’. Varun Sandesh and Anita play the lead pair in the film. Trivial news is Varun Sandesh is a young actor in Telugu who’s now playing the lead in the remake of Dhanush’s ’Polladhavan’. For now it has been tentatively titled as ‘Marocharithra’ in Telugu and the Tamil title is yet to be unveiled.
