Drishyam,” a hit Indian thriller in which an ordinary man confounds the police in order to protect his family, is to be re-made in English.
Production is by India’s Panorama Studios with U.S. companies Gulfstream Pictures and JOAT Films. The film was first made in 2013 in the Malayalam language, before being remade in Hindi with Ajay Devgn and Tabu in the lead roles in 2015.
It earned itself a Hindi sequel “Drishyam 2,” in 2022, that grossed some $43 million worldwide. Panorama, which produced the Hindi version for Viacom18 Motion Pictures, has acquired the international remake rights to “Drishyam 1 & 2” from the original producers, Aashirvad Cinemas, and is settling up multiple international versions.
A Korean remake with Anthology Studios was announced in May last year, while Panorama says that a development deal for a Spanish language retread is also close to being finalized. “Sheep Without a Shepherd,” a Chinese version, that did not involve Panorama, was released in 2019 and was a $200 million-grossing hit.
