Shankar’s Anniyan (2005) is a psychological thriller film starring Vikram and Sadha in lead roles. One of the most expensive Indian films at the time, the film was a cultural phenomenon upon release. A Telugu-dubbed version titled ‘Aparichithudu’ was released and performed exceedingly well.
Besides its commercial success, the film earned a strong fan following for Vikram in Telugu states. Even on Televison, Aparichithudu has achieved incredible ratings since then. All of this is now relevant because this action drama is now heading for a grand re-release in Telugu on May 17, 2024 (Friday).
This is a jackpot for the distributors since there are no notable releases in Telugu and audiences haven’t come to theatres for months due to IPL and election fever. It must be seen how this Harris Jayaraj musical will fare at the ticket window. Despite having a Hindi-dubbed version, Shankar is adapting this flick in Hindi, with Ranveer Singh replacing Vikram.
