After tasting tremendous success with ‘The Dirty Picture’ in Hindi, the makers are planning to remake it in South. Although ‘The Dirty Picture’ dubbed version released in Telugu and Tamil, it didn’t reach wider audience. So, the Bollywood makers are keen on remaking it in Telugu and Tamil. There are few producers that are vying for remake rights, but they are not ready to sell them off.
They believe that the success of The Dirty Picture was because of Vidya Balan and they are very stubborn about casting an actress of same stature if not more. They have Anushka on their mind and few other top South actresses too. First choice for South remake of The Dirty Picture is Anushka. They are yet to meet her though.
