Mohanlal-starrer Drishyam, which was remade in Tamil, Telugu and Hindi, will now be remade in Chinese as well. A Chinese production house has bought the remake rights of the film from Aashirvad Cinemas, which had bankrolled the Malayalam film.
Director of the film, Jeethu Joseph told Silverscreen, “The Chinese production house bought the remake rights from us last month. It is really a proud moment for the entire team of Drishyam.”
Jeethu Joseph was in Beijing a month ago to seal the contract with the Chinese production house. A couple of days ago, the director had posted a video of him with the team of the Chinese production unit, in which, one of the team member said that they are proud to collaborate with Aashirvad Cinemas.
Drishyam had Mohanlal and Meena in lead roles, Asha Sharath, Kalabhavan Mani and Siddique in the supporting roles. The film was remade in Tamil as Papanasam with Kamal Haasan playing Mohanlal’s character and Gautami in Meena’s role.
