Vishal to remake Sowryam?

Sources insist that Tamil action-hero Vishal plans to remake Sowryam (also spelled Souryam), the Gopichand-Anushka starrer directed by cinematographer-turned-director Siva and produced by V. Ananda Prasad under Bhavya Creations banner.

Vishal's Satyam, starring Nayantara was simultaneously produced in Telugu as Salute. Both versions did well and now, Vishal is concentrating on his next project, Thoranai. Recently, it is said that Vishal watched Sowryam and liked it so much that he now plans to remake the film in Tamil, starring himself.

Gopichand, who has specialized in playing the angry young man, has enacted his role very well in Sowryam. Vishal, who has so far portrayed similar angry young hero roles in Tamil films, was pleased seeing how the main role had been developed. He immediately contacted the producers and reports say that apart from a few minor changes to suit cultural differences, the original script of Sowryam will remain.

With Vishal's lightning fast moves on screen and flashing eyes, he is sure to turn Sowryam's winning script into a Tamil blockbuster.
