What is Urvi about
Pradeep Varma’s film is about the flesh trade and how young girls end up trapped in this world. In Urvi, though, the protagonists don’t just make peace with their fate, but find a way out, while also getting revenge from those who wronged them.
When Urvi released, critics were unanimous about the fact that Pradeep had tried to do something different in an industry in which routine commercial entertainers were pretty much the norm. What didn’t work for them was the grim and realistic nature of the story-telling, but with able performers like Sruthi, Shraddha and Shwetha on board, it was saved from becoming undone at the seams.
Some of the recent additions to the NammaFlix library include Triple Riding (Ganesh, Aditi Prabhudeva, Megha Shetty), Munduvareda Adhyaya (Adityaa), Paddehuli (Shreyas K Manju, Nishvika Naidu), Love (), Onty Bunty Love Story (Prajay Jayram, Vrusha Patil), Electronic City (Aryan Harsha, Diya Ashlesha), Melody Drama (Sathya, Supreetha Sathyanarayan), among others.
