In an interesting development, the CEO of the multi-lingual OTT platform Spark OTT (co-owned by filmmaker Ramgopal Varma), Sagar Machanuru is testing new waters as a (co)producer of a Telugu film titled Kanabadutaledu. He has collaborated with four other producers Satish Raju, Dileep Kurapati, Srinivas Kishan Anapu and Devi Prasad Baliwada to bankroll the thriller that'll hit theatres on August 13. The film, written and directed by M Balaraju, features Sunil, Himaja, Vaishali Raj, Yugram, Uma Maheshwara Rao and Kancharapalem Kishore in pivotal roles.
Kanabadutaledu revolves around a series of audacious crimes amidst a locality. A detective sets out to find answers behind the mysterious incidents but they turn out to be scarier and more shocking than he could have ever imagined. The crux of the tale deals with the detective's investigation and his determination to uncover the truth. Kanabadutaledu's pre-release event was held in Hyderabad earlier this week. The event was graced by the cast and crew, in addition to Baahubali writer Vijayendra Prasad, filmmaker Ramgopal Varma and actor Arun Adith.
Sagar Machanuru, speaking at the event, shared that Kanabadutaledu was the first film that Spark OTT had ever acquired. He added that the film was made with a lot of commitment by a tight-knit team, lavishing praise on the composer Madhu Ponnas and leading lady Vaishali Raj. "After reading the script, I felt the film warranted a bigger star cast and that's when we roped in Sunil, Himaja and Ravi Varma in our team. Sunil's performance in the film will surprise one and all," he stated. Sagar also requested audiences to adhere to safety regulations in theatres and enjoy the film.
Needless to say, Kanabadutaledu will stream on Spark OTT post its theatrical run. The film's crew also comprises cinematographer Sandeep Baddula, editor Ravi Teja Kurmana.
