The Telugu remake of the popular
Malayalam film Kappela has been officially launched last year. In July 2020,
popular production house, Sithara Entertainments bagged the rights to this
well-acclaimed coming-of-age drama.
to feature Siddhu Jonnalagadda and Arjun Das in the lead roles. Debutant
director Shourie Chandrasekhar T Ramesh got the chance of helming the movie and
Sweekar Agasthi of “Care of Kancharapalem”
fame was appointed to compose music.
The Malayalam film Kappela
starring Roshan Mathew, Anna Ben, and Sreenath Bhasi, garnered attention all
over the nation when it was released on the OTT platforms soon after a few days
of release in theatres. Sidhu Jonnalagadda was supposed to play the role of
Srikanth Basi and Arjun Das to enact the Roshan's role.
But if the rumors are to be
believed Siddhu Jonnalagadda is not in a mood to do the role as it has negative
shades which can damage his new popularity which he gained from DJ Tillu, which
was a stupendous success thanks to his exceptional portrayal as in the title
role.
Now with Siddhu 's refusal to act
in the movie, makers are in a bit of confusion. As per the source's
information, they tried to rope in a new actor for the role but dropped the
idea because it's not safe to go with all newcomers and upcoming actors.
The reason for Siddhu
Jonnalagadda craze today is because of Sitara Entertainments “DJ Tillu” movie
and the film was released in Telugu states on a large scale. Even though Siddhu
had acted in some films till then, he did not get that much recognition.
It is a surprise that Siddhu is
pointing out the image factor. Nowadays all the actors are looking for
different kinds of roles and are open to experiments. Now we have to wait and
watch if Siddhu Jonnalagadda changes his mind and if he doesn't the makers are
in an idea to shelve the movie instead of wasting time and money.
