Time for business for Bellamkonda

He was the master of remakes.

But the shoot-out incident at Balakrishna's residence has ensured that Bellamkonda Suresh will be remembered for something else altogether.

The controversial producer, known for his penchant to buy rights for remakes from Tamil, is now slowly recuperating from the bullet injuries.

With a patch-up worked out between his family and Balakrishna's, his mental scars are also said to be healing. However, one report had it that he recently flew into a rage while talking about the incident within the family.

Anyway, it is also time to get back into business in right earnest.

Suresh is working out last minute schedules for the shooting of the film Autograph, a remake of the Tamil hit of the same name. The shooting, with Ravi Teja in the lead, is fast progressing (recently the scenes involving a blind orchestra was shot in Chennai).

The film is scheduled for release in August. Suresh, who also bought the rights of Vikram starrer Arul for a fabulous sum, has now second thoughts about remaking it in Telugu as the movie fumbled in Tamil. Now he may just dub it in Telugu.

All is well, that ends well.
