Rajnikanth starrer ‘Lingaa’ didn’t do well in either Tamil or Telugu. Jagapathi Babu played the villain in this movie and he seems to be the only beneficiary of the project.
Apart from getting offers in other Tamil movies, Jagapathi is now famous there as the ‘villain of Lingaa’.
Now, producers are trying to cash in on this new found image of Jagapathi Babu by dubbing his Telugu films into Tamil.
Thanks to ‘Lingaa’, they are confident of his movies raking in enough openings and then if there is good word-of-mouth, a decent satellite price there. One such movie currently being dubbed into Tamil is ‘Nagaram Nidra Pothunna Vela’.
Although the movie was a disaster in Telugu, who knows? It might appeal to the sensibilities of the Tamilians. Till recently, it was Tollywood that was bombarded with Tamil dubbed films. It’s now nice to see Jagapathi gain some traction there.
