IS 'SALAAR' A REMAKE OF 'UGRAMM'?

Director Prashanth Neel decided to split 'Salaar' into two parts. While the first part will release next week, the second part is yet to go on floors.

Meanwhile, rumours have been doing the rounds that 'Salaar' is a remake of Prashanth Neel's Kannada film, 'Ugramm'. Producer Vijay Kiragandur has now shared his thoughts on the rumours. He said, "Prashanth Neel is the creator of both Ugramm and KGF. He’s aware of how to give a different product each time altogether. Hence, there’s no truth (to Ugramm rumours)."

Here's the trailer of 'Salaar':

In an interview with Pinkvilla, Prashanth Neel revealed that 'Salaar' is a story of two friends. He explained, "It is a story of two friends who become the biggest enemies. Friendship is the core emotion of the film. We are going to show this journey of friends over the course of two films."

The 2014-film 'Ugramm' is about two friends as well. The hero visits his close friend, who lives in a village called Mughor, where they rape and kill girls. Seeing the injustice, the hero comes to help the villagers.
