Does Uma Maheswara also follow the same course?
#MAHESHINTE PRATHIKARAM SCRIPT MOVIE#
Maheshinte Prathikaram is a movie that gave a lot of importance to its geographical location and the culture of the people in Idukki. Uma Maheswara is my directorial project and it is told purely out of my love for its original version. This is Maha’s Mahesh and I have added bits to the screenplay from my experiences of staying at Araku.Īlso, comparisons to Kancherapalem should be drawn with my next film, which is my original content. But let me tell you, Satya is going to look very different from Fahadh in Maheshinte Prathikaram. So I took the screenplay as it is and tweaked it a bit to suit the sensibilities of Telugu audiences. I met Dileesh Pothan and Syam Pushkaran before making the film and came to know the movie was inspired by a true event that happened in Idukki. But it’s been three years since its release and no one has picked it up yet for a remake. This is the first question that Praveena asked when I suggested Maheshinte Prathikaram. So what made you pick a tough one like Mahesinte Prathikaram? Remakes come with a lot of challenges, especially when the original is a celebrated movie. That’s when Praveena asked if I wanted to do any remakes and Mahesinte Prathikaram was my first choice… Uma Maheswara will be our intern project for making a bigger film. I gave Praveena all the scripts I had written but nothing fitted the budget bracket we had in mind. My next directorial is a big-budget movie, so I wanted to make an in-between movie, which wasn’t as small as Kancherapalem and also not as big as my next movie would be. So my plans next were to make a moderate budget film which had a larger cast and crew. In 2018, we made Kancherapalem with hardly 15 members in the entire crew.
I didn’t immediately want to make a remake, but thought if I ever get a chance to do one, this would be my choice. When I first watched Maheshinte Prathikaram, I thought this was something that should be made for the Telugu audience.
