Pudiya Varpugal directed by Bharathiraja launched his assistant Bhagyaraj in the role of a hero and rendered a new dimension to the image of hero in Kollywood.
The village based theme of romance had become a trendsetter of sorts which was followed by many filmmakers later.
Now after thirty years, Pudiya Varpugal is getting geared up to be remade with interesting twists and turns. Bhagyaraj will be directing this film with his son Shantanu doing his role in the new venture and the film will be produced by Kalaipuli S Thanu.
Before commencing his new film, Bhagyaraj visited Bharathiraja along with son Shantanu to seek the veteran’s blessings. Moved by Bhagyaraj’s gesture, Bharathiraja exalted the father-son duo and conveyed his best wishes for the new film to be a grand success. He also wished a bright future for Shantanu.
