Produced under the renowned Sri Devi Movies banner by Sivalenka Krishna Prasad and directed by Mohanakrishna Indraganti, ‘Sarangapani Jathakam’ stars Priyadarshi and Rupa Koduvayur in lead roles. Set for release on April 25, the film promises a delightful experience. Producer Sivalenka Krishna Prasad shared key insights with the media, and here’s a refined overview:
A Complete Entertainer with Indraganti’s Flair
‘Sarangapani Jathakam’ is a vibrant mix of action, suspense, thriller, comedy, and romance. Indraganti’s story narration left me thrilled, and this film will have audiences roaring with laughter in theatres. It fulfills my long-standing wish to produce a full-length comedy, reminiscent of what I could have created with Jandhyala garu.
This film is crafted to linger in the audience’s hearts for years to come.
Aiming for a Hat-Trick Hit
Following the success of Gentleman and Sammohanam, this collaboration with Indraganti is poised for a third consecutive hit. Mohanakrishna’s engaging story and screenplay will captivate both family and youth audiences. The film, a result of meticulous effort, is perfectly timed for the summer holidays, releasing on April 25 to maximize theatre reach and festive cheer.
Film Highlights
Early screenings have received glowing feedback. The first half is packed with humor, while the second half elevates the experience further. Centered around a horoscope, the narrative is gripping yet accessible, blending suspense with light-hearted entertainment.
Every character is woven seamlessly into the story, with standout comedic performances by Vennela Kishore, Viva Harsha, Naresh, and Avasarala Srinivas.
Priyadarshi’s Stellar Act
Priyadarshi was our first choice for the lead, and his recent success in Court has only amplified his appeal. While he portrayed a serious role there, here he shines with impeccable comic timing, delivering a performance that does full justice to the character.
Indraganti’s Distinctive Touch
Known for his versatility in films like Sammohanam (romance) and Gentleman (thriller), Indraganti’s comedic brilliance reaches new heights in this film. His signature style ensures a paisa-vasool experience that will leave audiences thoroughly entertained.
Passion for Quality Cinema
Unlike the current trend of prioritizing star combinations over stories, my passion lies in crafting meaningful cinema. From Aditya 369 to Yashoda, I strive to leave my mark on every project. The production values of Sarangapani Jathakam have already garnered widespread praise.
Release Strategy
The film merges Jandhyala’s wit, EVV’s charm, and Indraganti’s modern sensibilities to appeal to today’s audiences. Originally planned for April 18, the release was shifted to April 25 to secure optimal theatres. It will hit screens in a massive rollout, including over 220 theatres overseas.
Future Ventures
Discussions are underway for new projects. While I’m cautious about sequels, I’d eagerly join a potential Aditya 369 sequel with Balakrishna garu. I’m excited about two stories from the Yashoda directors and one from Pavan Sadineni. Another collaboration with Indraganti is also in the works. Official announcements will follow once plans are finalized.
