Off late, Malayalam cinema has gone to another level in terms of popularity. Especially after the OTT platforms coming in, the audience is getting to see some good Malayalam cinema for free.
Tollywood has taken a step ahead and is remaking several Malayalam films like Kappela, Mahesinte Pratikram, Lucifer, Helen, and Ayyapanum Kohisyum in the days to come. There are many other films that will be remade in Telugu and they will be announced soon.
In such a case, a discussion is on as to are there no more original stories in Tollywood and what are all the directors and writers doing and why they are choosing such easy subjects.
But the culture of remaking south films in Telugu has been an old culture in Tollywood and the new age directors and writers are just following the trend.
