You may think that the small-town ambience of surprise hit Tanu Weds Manu, starring Madhavan and Kangana Ranaut, is unlikely to go down well with foreign audiences. But hang on. Now there will be a dubbed German version of the romantic comedy.

A delegation from Germany was bowled by the colour and gaiety in the film and so now a German version of the film is being made. "It was a group of students of Comparative Cinema from the University of Regensburg in Bavaria, Germany. My colleague fellow-filmmaker Hansal Mehta sent these students to me. I was surprised that they wanted to see Tanu Weds Manu, and even more surprised at the way they responded to the film," said director Aanand Rai.

"Tanu Weds Manu is making inroads in places where Bollywood cinema is not a priority. I suppose my honesty of purpose showed up on screen," added the excited director.
