Vikram in Recent Blockbuster Remake: Big Blunder?

The Malayalam movie Marco, the most violent Indian movie, starring Unni Mukundan in the lead and directed by Haneef Adeni, was released in theatres on December 20th and has ended up as a huge blockbuster success.

Now, there is a strong buzz that actor Vikram, after watching Marco, is interested in remaking the movie in Tamil.

This has gone viral, and many people on social media have responded, mentioning that it’s a poor decision by Vikram, as a large audience has already watched the movie in Malayalam.

Additionally, others will likely watch it on OTT after its release. The audience has criticized this as a blunder by Vikram.

Vikram’s past few movies haven’t performed well in theatres, and his last theatrical hit was the Ponniyin Selvan franchise, which was also a multi-starrer movie.

He is struggling to make a comeback with a blockbuster film. In this scenario, remaking a movie that has already been dubbed in multiple languages is a poor decision, say trade analysts.

Moreover, there are strong rumors that Vikram has been roped in to play an antagonist role in the sequel to Marco.

However, there haven’t been any official updates on this yet. Let’s see if Vikram decides to remake Marco in Tamil in the future.
