One upcoming remake that has been at the top of the watchlist is the Telugu film, Narappa, being adapted from the 2019 Tamil blockbuster, Asuran, which was directed by National Award winner Vetri Maaran. In the Telugu remake, veteran superstar Venkatesh Daggubati is reprising two-time National Award-winning actor Dhanush’s role and has been directed by Srikanth Addala under the joint collaboration of Suresh Productions in association with Kalaipuli S Thanu's V Creations featuring music by Mani Sharma. As Narappa is gearing up for its worldwide premiere on July 20 on Amazon Prime Video, promotions for the film are being carried out extensively, with the makers now releasing the 'Ooo Narappa' lyrical video, which has been picturised on Venkatesh and Ammu Abhirami.
'Ooo Narappa' in Narappa sung by Dhanunjay and Varam to the lyrics penned by Anantha Sriram is based on the 'Kathari Poovazhagi' song in Asuran and was featured on a younger looking Dhanush and Ammu Abhirami, who is reprising her role for the Telugu remake. We see Venkatesh emulating dance steps similar to Dhanush in the original and will definitely be a big highlight for the Telugu superstar's ardent fans. Narappa is based on a story and screenplay by Vetri Maaran, with the cast featuring names like Priyamani reprising Malayalam actress Manju Warrier's role, followed by Rao Ramesh, Nassar, Karthik Rathnam, Rajeev Kanakala among others making major appearances.
Expectations for Narappa are massive as fans have been waiting for it to come out for a while. The Narappa trailer released earlier this week has satisfied Venkatesh's fans everywhere, who have been sharing their excitement on social media about the release of the film. Announcing the release of Narappa on Amazon Prime, Venkatesh had earlier tweeted, "All my well-wishers and fans have been eagerly waiting to watch our film, #Narappa. Your love towards this film has been overwhelming for me and the team, who always ensured to go an extra mile just like Narappa." He added, "And, we believe that this love will keep growing until the film will be all yours...Watch it with your near and dear ones at the comfort and safety of your home. #NarappaOnPrime is just a few days and one click away. Releasing on @PrimeVideoIN on July 20."
