Lawrence debuts in B’town with an Ajay Devgn film

There has been a fad in Hollywood in the recent past to make the best use of south Indian films and remake them in Hindi, tweaking the story to suit local tastes. Sometimes, the B’town stars insist that the filmmaker who made the original wield the megaphone for them as well, like 'Murugadoss' ('Ghajini'), Prabhu Deva ('Pokkiri' in Tamil and Wanted in Hindi). That’s precisely what has happened also to our choreographer/actor/ filmmaker Raghava Lawrence.
Actor Ajay Devgn who has tasted success, remaking Suriya’s 'Singham' and 'Son of Sardaar', which was a remake of 'Maryada Ramanaa', is all set to act as the lead protagonist in Lawrence’s earlier blockbuster, 'Kanchana' — 'Muni 2'.  Devgn, who watched the film, was highly impressed with it and wanted Lawrence to make it in Hindi also. This means that Lawrence will be making his debut in direction in B’town. In Kanchana, he had played the male lead besides directing the movie while Sarath Kumar had the prominent role of a transgender.
 When Lawrence was contacted by this newspaper, the multifaceted personality who was busy in the wrapping up stage of its sequel, 'Muni 3' — Ganga, said, “Yes, it is true that I am making Kanchana — 'Muni 2' in Hindi, with Ajay Devgn in the lead. We are yet to figure out the actor for the transgender role played by Sarath Kumar. All other details are being worked out.”
