Actor GV Prakash is reportedly trying to buy the rights of the recently released Telugu fantasy-horror film Ekkadiki Pothaavu Chinnavada. The film stars Nikhil Siddhartha, Nandita Sweta, and Hebah Patel, and became a hit in Telugu states, despite being released during the period of demonetisation. GV Prakash already has seven films scheduled to release next year,
“While GV Prakash has offered a huge sum, and is keen to buy the film’s Tamil remake rights as he feels it has a good market here, there are others who have shown interest too. Negotiations are on and the team in Hyderabad is trying to sell the film for a higher price. A similar offer has been made for Kannada as well. A decision will be taken soon,” a source told Deccan Chronicle.
