Remakes - the toast of the season

These days, remakes of yesteryear big hits (classics, if you may) seem pretty much the toast of the season.

A clutch of movies are now set to be remade.

As we all know, Billa, the Rajinikanth blockbuster, is set to be remade with Ajith in the unforgettable double role.

Then we have the Gemini Ganesan classic Naan Avanillai. This stars Jeevan in the hero's slot and has a slew of heroines to add to the glamour.

Now officially, the original makers of M R Radha's biggest hit ever, Ratha Kanneer have announced that the film, which is almost legendary in Tamil Nadu, will be remade shortly.

Amidst this, actor Vijay has clarified that he is not doing the remake of Murattu Kalai.

Elsewhere, there is a talk that Kamal- K Balachander's unforgettable and ahead-of-the-times classic Manmadha Leelai will be remade.

There is no official word yet.

The other talk is that Jeeva may get do that role which Kamal played with rare elan and aplomb.
