Salman Khan unrealized dream, Remaking a blockbuster South Indian Film
Remaking films has played a significant role in Salman Khan's career. However, he had his sights set on remaking a stunning movie.
South Indian cinema has been a favorite source of material for Bollywood remakes, with Salman Khan being no exception. He has delivered a plethora of superhit films by remaking South Indian movies, including Wanted, Bodyguard, Judwaa, Bandhan, Biwi Number One, Tere Naam, Har Dil Jo Pyar Karega, No Entry, Ready, and Kick. Salman Khan is currently in the process of remaking the Tamil film Veeram in Hindi under the title ‘Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan.’ It’s clear that South Indian films have always been on Bhaijaan’s radar for potential projects.
However, there is one particularly interesting film that Salman Khan has had his eye on remaking but hasn’t been able to realize that dream yet due to some unknown reasons. Despite the success he has achieved in remaking South Indian films, this specific film still remains on his to-do list.
The film that Salman Khan had his heart set on remaking is none other than ‘Pulimurugan,’ a Malayalam movie that hit theaters in 2016. The movie was helmed by Vaishakh and starred Mohanlal in the lead role, for which he received the Special Jury Award at the National Film Awards. The storyline follows Murugan, whose father is killed by a ferocious tiger. Motivated by revenge, Murugan becomes an expert at hunting tigers, and the exceptional manner in which Mohanlal portrayed this character was truly unmatched. His acting prowess, coupled with his expressive demeanor and the power of the tiger, made for an enthralling cinematic experience.
