Sources also revealed to us that the team had apparently obtained the remake rights of the film from Kavithalaya productions and have in fact approached Keerthy Suresh to reprise the role played by her mother Menaka in the original.


However, recently, the writer of the film, Visu took to his social media page to say that Dhanush should also seek permission from him, because he had penned the story for the original. “It’s indeed true that Netrikann remake is on the cards. Neither Dhanush nor Kavithalaya has offered to give me any compensation,” Visu said. Immediately, Kavithalaya came up with the statement that they are the absolute owner of all the copyrights related to the film.


Now, we hear that, on Tuesday, Dhanush had apparently called Visu and spoke to him for over half an hour regarding the issue. He also revealed to him that he has no plans to star in the remake of Netrikann. The actor is currently shooting for Mari Selvaraj’s upcoming film, Karnan. He is also working on the pre-production of his second Bollywood film, Atrangi Re, directed by Aanand L Rai.
