Raai Lakshmi will play a Radio show host in the upcoming 100 Degree Celsius remake. The actress will play Shwetha Menon’s role from the original. While Menon played a TV host in the Malayalam version, Lakshmi will play a RJ.
The actress says that the remake had to be tweaked for the Tamil and Telugu audiences, as they might not relate to the Malayalam original as it is. “However, the plot of the movie would be the same,” she told ToI.
Directed by Mithran Jawahar, the film is all set to go on floors in mid-2017. Nikesha Patel has joined the team, while Mithran is still on the lookout for suitable actors to essay the other roles.
