Ravi Babu opens up on Yenuguthondam Ghatikachalam: Not one character is just for the sake of it

The trailer has created a decent hype for this film, and Ravi Babu says that he always wanted a theatrical release, but after the makers saw the film, they decided that an OTT release would be perfect.

Speaking about the same, he says that he comes from a very old school of thought regarding theatrical releases and wanted this film to go the same way. “I always wanted a direct theatrical release, but I did not have much of a say as the makers decided on a direct digital release. However, I feel that the comedy suits the audience of both OTT and theatrical, and the film will surely impress one and all,” said Ravi Babu.

Ravi Babu also adds that it has been quite some time since we have seen so many character artists in a film doing a lot of comedy. “There are so many seasoned actors like Ali, Krishna Bhagwan, Raghu Babu, and Naresh playing key roles in the film, and not one character is there just for the sake of it. Everyone has a backstory and is directly connected to the script,” added Ravi Babu.

Ravi Babu also revealed that his next film will be a full-on action thriller, and the shooting of the same has already begun in Hyderabad. ETV Win is known for bringing clean content to the family audience, and their last few films, like Anaganaga and Little Hearts, have done wonders for the team. The same will be the case for Yenugu Thondam Ghatikachalam as well, says Ravi Babu.
