Drishyam 2 shows us how a remake should be done
FirstpostAs for Ajay Devgn, does he stand up ably to Mohanlal in the original? It takes a huge amount of guts and enterprising spirit for a Hindi actor to enter into the mighty Mohanlal’s Malayalam zone, since his fans seem to think no one can improve on what he has done, especially when it comes to the Drishyam franchise which has acquired a cult status since its inception in 2015. “Audiences don’t like their hero going to jail at the end,” Vijay a shrewd film producer, comments at the initial stages when trouble seems a remote possibility. The husband and wife couple who are Salgaonkars’ troubled neighbours are far more sharply projected in the original Malayalam film, perhaps because they were played by far better actors Anjali Nair and Sumesh Chandran in the Malayalam original. Barring Devgn, the actors in Hindi come across as weakly cast, none more so than Akshaye Khanna whose endless grimacing as the Inspector General comes nowhere close to the steely investigative impulses of Murali Gopi in the original.
