Here's the latest update on the Tamil remake of Delhi Belly, which will be directed by Kannan. The film will now be remade in both Tamil and Telugu and the production house is in talks with Jayam Ravi and Naga Chaitanya to reprise Imran Khan's role from the original.
A source reveals, "Initially, the team was contemplating on casting either Jiiva or Jayam Ravi in the remake. Later, it was decided Ravi would play the lead as he fit the part of a callous youngster better. However, the production unit that has acquired the remake rights of the film is planning to make the flick a bilingual and are looking for an actor who has market in both Kollywood and Tollywood. One name that popped up in their mind is Naga Chaitanya, who made a cameo in Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa and is also doing Radha Mohan's next in Tamil."
The source adds, "Another possibility is that Ravi might be cast in the Tamil remake and Naga Chaitanya in the Telugu. Talks are on with both the actors and a clearer picture will emerge in a few days."
