Youth star Nithiin and Keerthy Suresh starrer ‘Rang De’ is gearing up for release on March 26th. The film is written and directed by Venky Atluri while produced by Suryadevara Naga Vamsi under the Sithara Entertainments banner. The Pre-Release Event of ‘Rang De’ was held in a grand style at Shilpa Kala Vedika. Star director Trivikram Srinivas graced the event as chief guest.
Speaking on the occasion, Trivikram said, “Humans are the only living beings who can smile and see all the colors. We are the lucky ones and ‘Rang De’ will be like a rainbow. I’ve watched the film and I really liked it. Nithiin is like my brother and I always wish him success. Nithiin and Keerthy are playing Arjun and Anu respectively which is indirect ‘A. Aa.’ Devi Sri Prasad is one of my favorite music composers and I’ve immense respect for musicians who have classical backgrounds. There is a particular song in this movie ‘Oorantha Cheekati’ and it will certainly make the audiences weep in the theatres.”
Music director Devi Sri Prasad said, “I was supposed to compose music for director Venky’s ‘Tholi Prema’ and ‘Mr. Majnu.’ I was on an overseas tour and so it did not work out. I’m glad that I’ve finally collaborated with Venky. I heard ‘Rang De’ script in a flight and this is a mature love story cum youthful entertainer. It will be a different film in Nithiin’s career.”
Director Venky said, “I never imagined that Nithiin and Keerthy would accept this film. They breathed life in the roles of Arjun and Anu. Now we three have become best friends. The support I received from the producers during the lockdown period is an unforgettable one. I met DSP as a fan but he gave me extraordinary music. It’s a blessing for this film to have legendary PC Sreeram and to all the artists and technicians, I thank you. Last but not least, director Trivikram’s encouraging words after watching ‘Rang De’ relieved me.”
Actress Keerthy Suresh said, “I thank the director and producers for believing in me that I can do the role of Anu. This is my third film in Devi Sri Prasad’s musical and I hope we score a hat-trick. The chemistry between me and Nithiin in ‘Rang De’ worked out quite well.”
Actor Naresh said, “I received hundreds of messages after the trailer was launched. This shows the response to the trailer and Venky has handled the film efficiently. ‘Rang De’ is a cocktail of emotions, entertainment, and romance. None can fit in the role of Arjun except Nithiin and Keerthy is the pride of South Indian cinema.”
Character artist Rohini said, “This film falls in that category when we would want to sit back and relax and watch a pleasant movie. Nobody can show a love story as beautiful as PC Sreeram and ‘Rang De’ is a striking love story. Anu role can only be done by Keerthy.”
Lastly, hero Nithiin addressed the event. “In this film, my age is 24 but my actual age is 36. I was in doubt but when I heard that PC Sreeram is doing the cinematography, I gained confidence and courage. Happy to be working with him after ‘Ishq.’ DSP gave fantastic music and all the songs released so far have garnered superb responses. Keerthy always reminds of ‘Mahanati’ but in this film, she is too naughty. She is a big asset to this film. I know director Venky for the past 11 years yet it took a long for us to work together. This is a sensitive subject and was handled well. ‘Rang De’ is my third film on the Sithara Entertainments banner. Whenever I score a flop, this banner gives me much-needed success. I reckoned as sentiment, ‘Rang De’ will definitely score a hit. In the industry, Pawan Kalyan and Trivikram are my pillars of support. They are my strength.”
Rang De Pre-Release event was also graced by producers S Radha Krishna (China babu), PDV Prasad, N.Sudhakar Reddy, Tagore Madhu, Vennela Kishore, Abhinav Gomatam, lyricist Shreemani, Singer Mangli, and others.
