Ram Gopal Varma comments on the 'disastrous fate of Jersey'; says releasing the dubbed version of Nani's original would have saved money and time

Of recent, the Hindi film industry has been churning out remakes of several South films. There are more than 10 films that are currently being remade into Hindi. A lot of the recent remakes in Hindi of successful South films were rejected by the audiences. Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma, who is known for calling a spade a spade, has shared his opinion on why Shahid Kapoor starrer Jersey failed to perform at the box office. Jersey is the official remake of a Telugu film of the same name starring Nani.

 

Ram Gopal Varma comments on the 'disastrous fate of Jersey'; says releasing the dubbed version of Nani's original would have saved money and time

 

Ram Gopal Varma took to Twitter and wrote, "The DISASTROUS fate of JERSEY film in Hindi signals the DEATH of REMAKES for the simple reason it has been proved multiple times that dubbed films like #Pushpa #RRR #KGF2 are doing far better than originals if the content is good #DeathOfRemakes."

 

 

Using the hashtag Death Of Remakes, Varma explained why Jersey’s fate will follow for other remakes as well. "If Nani ‘s original JERSEY from Telugu was dubbed and released it would have costed the producers just 10 lakhs whereas the remake in Hindi costed 100 cr resulting in losing enormous money,time, effort and face."

 

“After the monstrous successes of dubbed films like #Pushpa, #RRR and #KGF2 , no south film with good content will be sold for remake rights as even both the content and regional stars are being liked by the Hindi audiences #DeathOfRemakes,” he added.

 

 

“Bollywood will be now getting ducked from both front and back as they neither seem to know how to make superhits nor can they hope to survive on remaking south films because nobody will sell them REMAKE rights #DeathOfRemakes,” he wrote.

 

“Moral of the story is it’s smart to release dubbed films instead of remaking them because it’s obvious that the audiences are ok with any face or any subject from anywhere as long as it interests them #DeathOfRemakes,” he further added.
