As time passes by, his son, Shiva Kumar disappoints him by not being a bright student at college. Thiru's wife Janaki too is upset over the same. He loses his cool when Kumar is terminated from college for indulging in malpractice. An infuriated Kumar vents his frustration to his father and challenges him to join college and earn a degree.

Cast

Production

In April 2019, it was reported that the Kannada film College Kumar would be remade in Tamil and Telugu languages, with both versions being shot simultaneously. Hari Santhosh was confirmed to be directing both remakes, while the producers of the original too would be retained. Principal photography began in the same month.[5] Though the cast was largely the same in both versions,[3][2] Prabhu was exclusive to the Tamil version and Rajendra Prasad to Telugu.[6] It was also the Tamil cinema debuts of Rahul Vijay and Priya Vadlamani.[7][1]

Release and reception

College Kumar was released on 6 March 2020 in both Tamil and Telugu versions.[9][10] Reviewing the Telugu version, Neeshita Nyayapati of The Times of India rated it 2 stars out of 5, praising the premise but criticised its execution, saying it "makes it seem like leftover material from the 90s or early 2000s."[2] 123Telugu, reviewing the same version, opined that "Except for Rahul Vijay and Rajendra Prasad’s performance, there is nothing much to look forward to in this film which is like old wine in an old bottle".[11] Reviewing the Tamil version, Thinkal Menon of The Times of India also rated it 2 stars out of 5, saying, "College Kumar has the issues which most of the remake versions suffer. The project, which has been made simultaneously in [Telugu] as well, looks like a Telugu film in many scenes, thanks to the location and artistes who play the minor supporting roles."[3] Maalai Malar, however, reviewed the Tamil version more positively, praising its comedy.[4]
