There was a talk in Chennai that Bala’s film Vermaa was not satisfactory due to which the entire film was scrapped and shot again by Gireesayya titled Adithya Verma. That film didn’t do well either. Now the original cut of Dhruv Vikram’s Varmaa will now be available on the OTT platform Simply South. Simply South is an OTT platform dedicated to Tamil and other South Indian film industries. Only South Indian movies are shared on this OTT platform. This original cut will be available for streaming from October 06, 2020. After watching so many versions of Arjun Reddy in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, why would anyone want to watch one more version? Just because Bala made it? The music for Varmaa as well as Adithya Varma was created by composer Radhan. M. Sukumar and Sathish Suriya were the cinematographers for the original cut of Varmaa.
The original version starred Megha Chowdhury as the female lead opposite Dhruv Vikram. The movie was also the debut of Dhruv Vikram in the Tamil film industry. Raiza Wilson also played a prominent role in Varmaa. Megha was replaced by Banita Sandhu in the reshoots for Adithya Varma. Vijay Deverakonda’s Arjun Reddy was undoubtedly one of the most popular movies of 2017. The movie has also been remade in Hindi with the title Kabir Singh. The Hindi remake starred Shahid Kapoor in the lead role and was one of the highest-grossing films of 2019. Rights for a Malayalam and Kannada version of the movie have also been sold. E4 Entertainment, the house that created the Tamil version, also hold the rights to the Malayalam version of Arjun Reddy.
