2023 saw the release of the gripping Hindi action-thriller “Kill,” which earned widespread praise from viewers for numerous reasons. Not only did this film carve out a significant space at the box office, but its lead actor, Lakshya, was also lauded for his exceptional acting skills.

Lately, there have been many discussions about the possibility of a Tamil remake of this movie, featuring Dhruv Vikram as the main character. However, the director has recently cleared up any confusion regarding these reports.

Is Dhruv Vikram doing the Tamil remake of Kill starring Lakshya?

Recently, I had the thrill of chatting with the legendary filmmaker, Ramesh Varma, who’s been a source of inspiration for me and countless others in the industry. During our conversation with The New Indian Express, he finally let us in on some juicy details about that long-awaited remake project we’ve all been buzzing about!

He affirmed his involvement in a project alongside Dhruv Vikram, yet clarified that the film wasn’t a remake of “Kill,” but instead, an entirely unique romantic production.

According to him, “Although I won’t be writing ‘Kill’ with Dhruv, we plan to work together on another tale next year. It will be a love story.

Who is the lead star for Kill’s Tamil remake?

After making that statement, the filmmaker went on to address whether a remake of ‘Kill’ was being planned and who might be involved in it as the main actor.

Responding to this, Ramesh confirmed that a reboot of the film “Kill” is being considered. Instead of Dhruv Vikram, there are discussions ongoing about Bellamkonda Sreenivas taking on the main role in the remake.

He shared that negotiations are ongoing with Bellamkonda Sreenivas for him to play the main role in our remake of Kill. I’m eager to carry on working together following our project Rakshasudu. Assuming everything falls into place, we could start production on the film next month.
