KANTRI IS A REMAKE OF "CATCH ME IF YOU CAN?" ?

Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks starrer 'Catch Me If You Can' could be the inspiration for the NTR's film currently in the making.

While NTR is busy shooting for the film being made under the Vyjayanti Movie banner, the news in the tinsel ville is that it is Steven Spielberg's film that is said to have given the basic idea to director Meher Ramesh.

Now, the original had Leonardo playing the lead as a con man who is tamed by Tom Hanks and how a special bond develops between them.

If NTR plays the role of Leonardo, we think it is Prakash Raj who gets to play the part of Tom Hanks.
