What is Kamal's demand to star in 'Drishyam'?
It is well known that Padma Bhushan Kamal Hassan will be acting in the Tamil remake of Drishyam, the Malayalam super hit film directed by Jeetu Joseph.The original had Malayalam superstar Mohanlal playing the lead role and Ulaganayagan is set to replace Lalettan in the tamil version directed by the same man, while Meena is expected to be retained. However the actress who has earlier paired up with Kamal in the 1996 film Avvai Shanmugi has stated that she has not been contacted by anyone for Drishyam Tamil remake as yet.
Kamal will be start working on the film in the later half of this year after finishing his magnum opus directorial venture Viswaroopam 2 and also Uthama Villain to be directed by his good friend and co-actor Ramesh Aravind
Now the latest we hear about Drishyam Tamil remake is that Kamal has offered 50 days call sheet for the project and demanded 20 crores as his salary to act in the film. We also hear that Suresh Balaji of Wide angle creations who is going to produce the Tamil version of Drishyam has agreed to met the demand, considering the Indian and overseas market share enjoyed by the star. Trace circles also say that Drishyam Tamil remake with Kamalhassan's name, can be sold for an amount not less than rupees 30 crores in Tamilnadu alone and it is certainly a worthy deal for the makers.
