After the OTT platforms became popular, the concept of remakes is becoming useless. The digital platforms are releasing the same content in multiple languages or providing subtitles which is making it easier for the audience to access movies or web series from different parts of the world. When people are watching movies from every region, the concept of remaking a film from one language to another serves no purpose.
But remakes are not completely vanished yet and a lot of Bollywood makers are remaking content from the South in the past couple of months. One such remake film is ‘Good Luck Jerry’ which will be streaming on Disney + Hotstar from July 29th. The theatrical trailer of this film came out a while ago. As many know, it is the Hindi version of Nayanthara’s super hit film ‘Kolammavu Kokila’ which released in 2018. Sridevi’s daughter and young actress Janhvi Kapoor is playing the lead in the Hindi version.
As we know, the story of this film revolves around a young girl entering the field of drug supply in order to gather money for her mother’s health care. While Nayanthara aced the role thanks to her immense experience, Janhvi tried her best in this full-length character. The entire movie is about her and the youngster did a commendable job despite some flaws in her acting at parts in the trailer. The supporting cast did their bit and trailer creates a positive impression on the film.
Siddharth Sengupta is the director while Pankaj Matta wrote the film. Deepak Dobriyal, Meeta Vashishtha, Neeraj Sood, and Sushant Singh portrayed key roles in this remake. Anand L Rai, Lyca Productions and Sundial films jointly produced this movie. Janhvi is aiming for a good hit from a long time and let us see if it happens or not.

Prabhas’ OTT Deals: Raja Saab Nearing, Fauji Delayed
Prabhas’ movies continue to be the hottest picks in the digital market. The biggest proof is Spirit, his film with Sandeep Reddy Vanga, whose OTT rights were snapped up a long time ago for a massive ₹160 crore—even before the film properly went on floors. That shows the sheer demand for the Prabhas–Vanga combo.
But interestingly, two other Prabhas films are still waiting to close their OTT deals.
The first is Raja Saab, directed by Maruthi. Technically, this deal is almost sealed; only the final signatures are pending. A few minor formalities are causing the delay.
The second is Fauji, directed by Hanu Raghavapudi and produced by Mythri Movie Makers. Despite expectations that the OTT deal would be wrapped up quickly, things haven’t moved yet.
The reason? OTT platforms already have multiple Prabhas films in their upcoming slate, including Salaar 2 and Kalki 2898 AD Part 2. Because of this, they’re not in a hurry to lock more new projects with him immediately.
By the end of the month, the Raja Saab agreement is expected to be finalized. Fauji, however, might take a while longer to close its digital deal.
