Nata Samrat, a popular play written many decades ago, inspired the Marathi film by the same name starring Nana Patekar and was a huge commercial success. Director Krishna Vamsi remade this film in Telugu recently - Rangamarthanda. The faithful remake of the relationship drama starred Prakash Raj, Ramya Krishna, Brahmanandam, Shivathmika Rajashekar and Anasuya Bharadwaj.

S Venkat Reddy and Kalipu Madhu bankrolled the film under Housefull Movies and Raja Shayamala Entertainments. The film hit screens worldwide this Ugadi on March 22. After opening to glowing reviews and performing decently in its theatrical release, the drama is out on OTT. Leading streamer Amazon Prime acquired its post-theatrical digital rights and premiered the film this Friday.

Noted composer Ilaiyaraaja scored the music for the drama - numbers like Damidi Semanthi, Puvvai Virise Pranam and Nannu Nannuga were a hit with listeners. Rahul Sipligunj made his acting debut with the film that also starred Jayalalitha, Aadarsh Balakrishna and Ali Reza in key roles as well. Raj K Nalli cranked the camera for the project. Silly Monks acquired its music rights.

The story revolves around a theatre actor, Raghava Rao, who, after an illustrious career as bids goodbye to the stage, in a bid to spend more time with his wife and two children. While he hands over the responsibilities of the household to his children, the equations within the family take a drastic turn with time. How will he and his wife Raju Garu grapple with the generational disconnect?

In its review of Rangamarthanda, OTTplay wrote, “Rangamarthanda belongs to the same school as NTR’s Badi Panthulu/Baghban, discussing parental negligence and generational disconnect through the eyes of a theatre veteran. The film isn’t free from flaws but features standout performances by Prakash Raj, Ramya Krishna and Brahmanandam and marks director Krishna Vamsi’s return to form. Keep your hankies close by.”
