Krishna Vamsi who was once a top director in Tollywood has been struggling to make successful films over the past decade. He took a long gap after ‘Nakshatram’ and he is coming back now with a very interesting project. This movie has been in the making for a long time. It is titled ‘Rangamarthanda’ and he is hoping to score a hit with this movie.
As it is known, the re-release trend has gripped the entire Tollywood. On superstar Mahesh’s birthday, fans enjoyed the re-release of ‘Pokiri’ and the videos of them jumping in theatres went viral. After that, Chiranjeevi fans had re-releases of ‘Gharana Mogudu’, ‘Gang Leader’ and others. On Pawan’s birthday, ‘Jalsa’ got released. Prabhas fans re-released ‘Billa’ and ‘Rebel’ in theatres. Balayya fans enjoyed the re-release of ‘Chenna Keshava Reddy’ while Pawan fans recently had a re-release of ‘Khushi’. Now, fans of Mahesh are planning to release ‘Okkadu’ once again in theatres.
In the same manner, fans of director Krishna Vamsi asked him to release his memorable film ‘Sindhooram’ again. Starring Brahmaji and Ravi Teja in the lead, this movie was released in 1997. Despite all the critical acclaim and awards, it was a commercial failure. But, it gained a cult following among Telugu movie lovers.
When a fan posed the question regarding the re-release of ‘Sindhooram’, the ‘Khadgam’ director replied, “It took me 5 years to clear the debts of that film.” This explains what Krishna Vamsi faced due to this movie and he made it clear that he has no idea of re-release ‘Sindhooram’.
Coming back to ‘Rangamarthanda’, versatile actor Prakash Raj is playing the lead role according to sources and Brahmanandam is also a part of this movie. Top actress Ramya Krishna is playing a significant role. Produced by Houseful Movies and Rajashyamala Entertainments banners, Krishna Vamsi confirmed it as a story about all mothers and fathers. Legendary music composer Ilayaraja is working on this project while the late Sirivennela Seetharamasastry had penned the lyrics.
