Megastar Chiranjeevi was keen to remake Lucifer which was a super hit film in Malayalam. The film featuring Mohanlal was dubbed into Telugu and released in theatres. But Chiranjeevi is keen to take up the remake. Directors like VV Vinayak and Sujeeth worked on the scripts but Chiranjeevi wasn't impressed with the narration.
