We have also remade &#39;A Wednesday&#39; in the past in Tamil and Telugu and have witnessed that great content finds its way to the audiences hearts,&quot; Siddharth Roy Kapoor said. Gupta who is currently directing &#39;Ghanchakkar&#39;, his third film with UTV post &#39;Aamir&#39; and &#39;No One Killed Jessica&#39;, is excited about this development. &quot;I&#39;m really happy to hear that my first film &#39;Aamir&#39; is now being remade in Tamil. The Tamil audience is very discerning and I&#39;m confident that the Tamil remake of &#39;Aamir&#39;, which was a great story, will garner as much acclaim as its Hindi version!,&quot; he said. Hindi cinema has been importing content from its southern counterparts for sometime now with films like &#39;Wanted&#39;, &#39;Ready&#39; and &#39;Rowdy Rathore&#39;, all remakes of southern films, becoming a member of the 100 crore club. Director Krishna, who is debuting with the Tamil remake, said, &quot;In the Hindi version, Rajkumar Gupta has shown the underbelly of Mumbai and I will be showing the other side of Chennai. The original film has a very powerful screenplay and I hope that I can create the same magic with the remake.&quot; Other Hindi films that have been remade in South are &#39;Khosla Ka Ghosla&#39; as &#39;Poi Solla Poram&#39; in Tamil, &#39;A Wednesday&#39; as &#39;Unnaipol Oruvan&#39; in Tamil and &#39;Eenadu&#39; in Telugu and &#39;Delhi Belly&#39; as &#39;Settai&#39; in Tamil.
