Now another hero Varun Dhawan entered the race for remaking Mahesh’s super hit movie. Here the race isn’t between the star heroes but two big production companies of Bollywood companies competing to get the remake rights. One is Eros International, which has already co-produced the original.

The other one is Viacom. While Eros wants to remake the film with Varun Dhawan, Viacom would be betting on Salman Khan. This competition shows that the remake rights are going to earn big amount for the makers of the original as ‘Srimanthudu’ is the second highest grosser only after ‘Baahubali’ in Telugu.
