There’s no big suspense around ‘Raju Gari Gadhi 2’ because everyone including common audience are well informed about this horror comedy is inspired from a Malayalam film. Despite media threw enough hints by providing inputs centered on Malayalam hero Jayasurya’s role reprised by King Nagarjuna in Telugu and curly beauty Seerat Kapoor roped for important character, CJ is here to finally reveal the original Malayalam movie name ‘Pretham.’
This horror comedy written and directed by Ranjith Shankar released in August 2016 is received to average reviews and mediocre Box Office revenues. Yet, there is a basic thrilling element presented in entertaining way by the director. Apparently, Jaysurya isn’t a big star in Kerala like Nagarjuna in Telugu which makes all the difference.
Ohmkar is learnt to have made major changes into the script blending his affinity for comedy. ‘RGG 2’ will have no connection with ‘RGG’ and the whole premise is new. Let us see, how far this sequel matches with first part and original ‘Pretham’? That's where, there is a growing demand for Malayalam average films for Telugu remakes.
