The film “Narakasura,” starring Rakshit Atluri of “Palasa” fame along with Aparna Janarthan and Sankeerthana Vipin, was released in theaters on November 3rd. The movie generated significant interest through its unique promotional materials. While it received mixed reviews, it was lauded for its well-executed action sequences.
Produced by Dr. Ajja Srinivas under the banners of Sumukha Creations and Ideal Filmmakers, the film was directed by Sebastian Nova Acosta Jr. Today, the makers of “Narakasura” organized a success meet for the movie. It’s well-known that for mid-range and low-budget films, box office collections tend to decrease from Monday onwards if they don’t receive glowing reviews or positive word of mouth.
To counter this trend, the makers of “Narakasura” came up with an innovative strategy to attract audiences to their film. They announced that from Monday to Thursday, two people can watch “Narakasura” with a single ticket purchase – essentially a buy one, get one offer. It remains to be seen how this strategy will perform in practice.
“Narakasura” delves into a significant theme, highlighting the importance of not belittling and respecting transgender individuals. The film’s cast features Rakshit Atluri in the lead role, with Aparna Janarthan and Sankeerthana Vipin playing the female leads. Shatru plays a crucial role, while Nassar, Charan Raj, Teja Charan Raj, Sreeman, and Gayatri Ravi Shankar take on other important roles. The film’s music is composed by Nafal Raja.
