Killing Veerappan has been a surprise hit. Despite this being a hit, RGV says he is reluctant to release the same film by dubbing it into Hindi. "When I made Killing Veerappan in Kannada, I concentrated only on Operation Cocoon because the people of Karnataka know all the other details about Veerappan. In spite of it being a massive hit in South, I strongly felt that the audience in the North and outside the country would be dissatisfied because unlike in the South, they don't know much about Veerappan," writes RGV.

Thus, when he narrated the idea to a businessman, the latter instantly said OK, said that it has to be made into an international biopic. "He said it can't be limited to just the killing of Veerappan. So, he and an international partner of his are producing this biopic of Veerappan and their one and only condition was that I should not compromise on this film's cost and just push it to the highest of international standards," RGV told the world.

"The international version of Veerappan is going to be completely re-shot with a lot of new actors because it's now a biopic and the emphasis won't be just on killing Veerappan. It will catch the tremendous drama of the rise of Veerappan, the dangerously complex situations of how the Special Task force and Border Security Forces failed, and so on," the ace filmmaker further said.

It seems that RGV has taken the right saga to tell a terrific story. The Telugu audience were taken by surprise to know many unknown details about Veerappan. The Hindi and international audience, too, might fall in love with RGV's narration.
