Naga Chaitanya who is not getting much needed success with his recent films is going for a image makeover. If sources are to be believed Naga Chaitanya is likely to act in the Telugu version of Hindi film ‘Delhi Belly’. Naga Chaitanya would be doing the role done by Imran Khan, nephew of Bollywood hero Aamir Khan.
Director Kannan has acquired the remake rights long back and had an idea of roping in Simbhu for Tamil remake who was later been replaced by other young actor Jayam Ravi for unknown reasons.
The buzz started that Kannan has approached Naga Chaitanya for the Telugu version. Though there hasn’t been any confirmation either from the director or Naga Chaitanya, the gossip has caused enough interest.
Naga Chaitanya has market in both Tollywood and Kollywood as he has acted in two Tamil films. Another talk about the film is that Naga Chaitanya would be the hero in both Tamil and Telugu versions because of his presence in both languages.
The slapstick comedy was directed by Abhinay Deo and casted Aamir’s nephew Imran Khan in the lead. Though certified ‘A’ for its adult content and dialogues, the flick drew hordes of youngsters to the cinema houses where it was screened. It garnered as much as Rs 92 crore at the box-office worldwide apart from rave reviews for the bold attempt for its makers. It is to be seen as to how Naga Chaitanya would fit in the bill for the Delhi Belly’s remake!
Right now Naga Chaitanya is busy with the shooting of Deva Katta’s Autonagar Surya wherein he is pairing with Ye Maya Chesve co-star Samantha Ruth Prabhu. RR Movie Makers’ Venkat is producing it. He is part of Aakasamantha-fame Radha Mohan’s Gouravam, a Telugu-Tamil bilingual. Nagarjuna’s Annapoorna Studios is to produce the movie, which is planned for release in summer.
