Pradeep Negates Rumors Of Directing ‘U Turn’ Tamil Remake

Last year, director Pawan Kumar released his super-hit crime thriller ‘U Turn’ in Kannada starring Shraddha Srinath, Radhika Chetan, Roger Narayan and Dileep Raj. Back then, Samantha Akkineni was extremely interested in the project so she bought the remake rights of the film before its release. Initially, sources stated that Pradeep Krishnamoorthy will be directing the project but the director himself negated these talks.

“Long back, someone initiated the talks for U Turn’s remake in Tamil. But, I was not keen to do a remake again as I was working on Sathya, then which is also a remake of Telugu film Kshanam. And hence, it stopped then and there”, Pradeep explained. It was also being said that Samantha will play the female lead but the latest is that Nayanthara will play the part.

In the original film, Shraddha played the role of an investigative journalist and her performance was lauded by the critics and the audiences. Pradeep, who is known from his film ‘Saithaan’, is currently working on an original script. Details about the new project are currently not known.
