Prathi Poovankozhi narrates the story of a sales girl who faces humiliation while travelling in a bus. She is so enraged when a man squeezes her bottom on a bus one day, that she makes it her mission to slap him at least once. Usually the feeling is that such humiliating experiences are so common in such crowded places and women have to go through all of it silently, but the trauma that she goes through is often conveniently forgotten in the process. The film did well in Malayalam. Prathi Poovankozhi will be remade in multiple languages. And now, it has been confirmed that producer Boney Kapoor has the remake and dubbing rights of this film in all languages. The Manju Warrier starrer, directed by Rosshan Andrrews, released last year. The film was based on the novel Sankadam, penned by Unni R.
Apart from Prathi Poovankozhi, Boney Kapoor also has the remake rights of another Malayalam movie, Helen. Reports are that this heroine-centric film will star his daughter Jahnvi Kapoor in the lead role. Boney Kapoor is currently bankrolling the Ajith starrer Valimai which is being directed by H Vinoth and Vakeel Saab, a Telugu film with Pawan Kalyan in the lead role. It is a remake of Pink.
