Pavan Kalyan stars in Telugu remake of 'Thirupachi'

Bangalore, Dec 20 (IANS) After "Bangaram", Pavan Kalyan fans are eagerly waiting for "Annavaram", a Telugu remake of the Tamil superhit "Thirupachi".

Like the Vijay starrer "Thirupachi", this remake is also an action film laced with brother-sister sentiment. The film is expected to hit the marquee Dec 29.

"It will be a feast for Pavan fans," says producer R.B. Choudury, a remake specialist who bounced back with smashing hit "Andala Ramudu".

"Annavaram" is Pavan's first film to have a rural backdrop. Aasin, who returns to the Telugu screen after a series of successful Tamil films, plays the female lead.

Beemaneni Srinivasa Rao, whose earlier film "Suswagatham" with Pavan was a huge success, directs "Annavaram", being touted as the costliest project undertaken by the Mega Supergood Films so far.

Ramana Gogula, who churned out musical hits like "Thamudu" and "Badri" for Pavan, composes the music.

The biggest hits of Pavan, younger brother of Chiranjeevi, were "Susvagatham" and "Kushi", both of which were remakes of Tamil Vijay-starrers.

The cast and crew of "Annavaram" are hoping that history will repeat itself.
