Director N Raghavan's Manja Pai, starring Vemal, Rajkiran and Lakshmi Menon in the lead, is all set to be remade in Hindi, Telugu and Kannada. Veteran director-producer Dasari Narayana Rao has acquired the remake rights in Telugu, Rockline Venkatesh will be making the film in Kannada and Hindi.
Subash Chandrabose, who released the original, confirms the news to us,
saying, "Yes, Dasariji will be making the film in Telugu. I hear that
he will be casting Nani in it. Rockline Venkatesh has already started
the groundwork for the Kannada and Hindi remake rights. And Amitabh
Bachchan is likely to see the film soon, and he might also be part of
the Hindi version."
Sources tell us that Dasari Narayana Rao might
play the role of the grandfather himself, while Vishnu Manchu is in line

Manja Pai was all about how Rajkiran, who
plays Vemal's grandfather, comes to the city from a village and how he
adjusts to the city's lifestyle.
