KIt has not been a good time for Bollywood for the past few years. All landing images fail. Even films that garner good reviews in the initial days fail to attract audiences later on. Same is the case with remake films. At the same time, South Indian language films have flourished wherever Bollywood has influence. Famous producer Boney Kapoor has expressed his opinion on this issue.
Boney Kapoor opined that one of the reasons why Hindi remakes of some South Indian films are not successful is because they are copy-pasted. His response was to a national media. Even the names of Vikram Veda and Jersey have been similarly plagiarized. Also, while remaking South Indian films, North Indian ingredients should be added to suit the Hindi audience. He added that if you want to make a film that will be accepted by the whole of India, then the audience will accept it.
Boney Kapoor’s production company has released many films in Bollywood. Boney Kapoor produced Amitabh Bachchan’s Pink in Tamil with the title ‘Nerkonda Parvai’ starring Ajith. Boney Kapoor produced Mahesh Babu starrer Pokiri under the name ‘Wanted’, Okkadu under the name ‘Thevar’ and Telugu super hit film Subhalagnam under the name ‘Judai’.
Boney Kapoor’s upcoming film is Miley, which stars his daughter Jhanvi as the female lead. This film is a remake of Malayalam superhit film Helen. Mili, a survival thriller, will hit the theaters on November 4. Mathukutty Xavier, the director of ‘Helen’, is preparing the film.
