Director Prajith confirms Oru Vadakkan Selfie Tamil remake

Even as the onslaught of memes requesting Tamil film directors to not remake the Malayalam blockbuster Premam is yet to subside, here comes an interesting news on another hit Malayalam film which is all set to be remade in Tamil. Oru Vadakkan Selfie, which marked the directorial debut of G Prajith, received critical acclaim and went on to be a money-spinner at Mollywood box-office last year.

Now, director Prajith has confirmed that he will helm the official Tamil remake of Oru Vadakkan Selfie. The original was written by Vineeth Srinivasan, who is currently busy with Jacobinte Swargarajyam. The pre-production work for the remake has already started. Prajith is waiting for Vineeth to complete his ongoing project to decide the final cast and crew for the remake.

Prajith has also confirmed that Nivin Pauly will not reprise his role. The team is on the lookout for someone to play Nivin’s role in Tamil.
