Venky Kudumula has turned producer with Itllu Arjuna, starring debutant Aniesh as the male protagonist and Anaswara Rajan as the female lead. The film’s pre-release event was held in Hyderabad today, with Ram Charan and Nagarjuna attending as chief guests.
Speaking at the event, Nagarjuna said, “I thank Telugu audiences who always encourage newcomers. I thank NTR and Charan for promoting the film. When Aniesh approached me with the glimpse and requested a voiceover, I asked him about the story. I also asked him whether it was necessary to make his debut with a character who is speech-impaired.”
He further said, “I told him that he would need to speak through his eyes for the character to work. It took 10 years for Charan to do a deaf character in Rangasthalam, but Aniesh was very confident. I watched the film, and it pleasantly surprised me. Aniesh owned the role completely. Anaswara is such a talented actress. Their chemistry is superb, and it is something audiences can take home.”
“Every technician has done a fantastic job. I asked Thaman why he didn’t give me such wonderful songs (laughs). Aniesh’s love and silence will be heard on November 13. I’m confident that audiences will bless the team,” Nagarjuna concluded.
