The southern films have often proved to be a success formula for B-Town as they are padded up with the right amount of action, emotion, drama, and comedy. With the success of Southern remakes, ample producers from South, too, are gearing up for their journey in Bollywood and this includes the biggies like Dil Raju and Allu Aravind. Bollywood Hungama has exclusively discovered that one of the biggest producers down south, LYCA PRODUCTIONS is now gearing up to explore the Hindi film space and they have already started to chalk out plans of making multiple films in the next financial year.
