'Dopidi' ready for release  Kollywood superstar Vijay's film 'Kuruvi', is being dubbed in Telugu as 'Dopidi'. The film is
ready for a release soon. B Satyanaraya Reddy, who is releasing the film under the banner of
Abhi Pictures, said that the film is about an ordinary youth, born into a middle-class family,
who goes about robbing a millionaire's illegitimate money.
The film is directed by Dharani, the successful director of films like 'Gilli' and 'Dhool'. The film
has fared average at the box office in Tamil Nadu. The film has music by Vidya Sagar and is
presented by J Madhusudhana Reddy. Suman has portrayed the role of a mafia don in the
film. Also seen in the film are Mallavika, Nasser, Asish Vidhyarthi, Vivek and Jeevi in important
characters. It has dialogue by Rajasekahra Reddy.
Given that Dharani's style of making has not been much appreciated in Telugu (read
'Bangaram'), it is to be seen if a Tamil dub works in the state. Nevertheless, his films boast of
idealistic characters and romance. They show the frustration of the exploited in an effective
way. Coming to 'Dopidi', the publicity is Trisha-oriented, who is any day more popular than
Vijay in AP.
