‘Gundamma Katha’ (1962) is one of the classic movies ever made in Tollywood. To remake this film according to the present trend is very risky at the same time the movie should not disappoint the audience. Earlier Young Tiger Jr. NTR and Naga Chaitanya had plans to remake this but their motive did not move further. Chaitu expressed his willingness to act in this classic with Jr. NTR, “me and Tarak are interested in ‘Gundamma Katha’ remake. But we need the right cast and the right director to helm that. When these things fall into place, we will definitely attempt that,” said Chaitu.
Yes, Chaitu’s words are absolutely true. In fact it is very difficult to find artists for roles of Gundamma and Ramabhadraih essayed by legendary actors Suryakantham and S.V. Ranga Rao who are backbones for the original film. Let’s hope the remake will definitely fall into place.
