Sudeep does not hide the fact that his second film as director ‘73, Shanti Nivasa,’ is a remake. The 1972 Hrishikesh Mukherjee classic ‘Bawarchi’ starring Rajesh Khanna is the inspiration. Going by his debut ‘My Autograph’ can we expect a frame-by-frame copy? Does not seem unlikely. The fun part however is that ‘Bawarch’ has already been copied in Kannada. Shashikumar acted in ‘Sakalakala Vallabha,’ an unauthorised copy of the
Hindi original in the early 90s. As an actor Sudeep acted in more remakes than originals. Now he has a cent per cent record of remakes as a director. Great going…
