Nandamuri Kalyanram's spy thriller 'Devil', set in the British-India era, has been postponed indefinitely. The Abhishek Nama directorial will NOT be hitting the cinemas this November 24. After director Naveen Medaram was thrown out of the project and producer Nama took over the reins as the director, 'Devil' has yet to find its groove.
Instead, a remake is going to be released in theatres on November 24. It is 'Kota Bommali PS', which is a remake of the Malayalam movie 'Nayattu'. Producers Bunny Vass and Vidya Koppineedi are planning to release this Srikakulam-based raw and gritty story starring Srikanth, Varalaxmi Sarathkumar, Rahul Vijay and Shivani Rajasekhar on a decent scale. After the failure of recent remakes such as 'Martin Luther King' at the box office, it will be hard for 'Kota Bommali PS' to find takers and gain buzz.
The biggest release of the week is going to be 'Aadikeshava', starring Vaisshnav Tej and Sree Leela in the lead. The action entertainer is produced by Sithara Entertainments.
The above films will clash with 'Dhruva Natchathiram' (dubbed from Tamil), helmed by Gautham Vasudev Menon and starring Vikram in the lead. The dubbed spy thriller will only have a formality release in Telugu.
