Rakshit Atluri impressed everyone with his debut film Palasa. With each film of his, he is scaling new heights. Well, Rakshit is ready with his new film Narakasura which is all set to hit the screens on November 3, 2023. The young hero is busy promoting the film and is quite confident that Narakasura will be a decent hit at the box office.
Speaking about the film, Rakshit says "Narakasura is set in a coffee estate on the borders of AP and Tamil Nadu and I play a lorry driver named Shiva. We have taken a point related to the Hijras, just like in my previous movie Palasa, I have shown the problems related to Dalits. Narakasura has all the commercial elements. This transgender element causes a conflict in the story".
When asked about the hardships faced, Rakshit says "We started Narakasura in 2020 and wanted to complete the film within a year. But there were two covid waves in between. Due to this, dates could not be arranged for combinations of artists. The shooting of the film, which was supposed to be a year, took two and a half years. I couldn't do another project because of the getup I did for this character. But my hard work will surely pay off".
Aparna Janarthan and Sankeerthana Vipin are going to be seen as heroines in this film which also has Nasser playing the character of a coffee estate supervisor. The visuals are great and the twists that come in the film are also going to be special says Rakshit.
The special aspect is that the movie is going to be released in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada languages as well. The film also has Nasser, Charan Raj, and Sreeman in key roles. Watch this space for more updates on this film.
