\u201cProducing a film like Sha\u1e63\u1e6dhip\u016brti is much harder than directing it\u201d \u2013 Director Pawan Prabha<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cI made Sha\u1e63\u1e6dhip\u016brti to portray the value, love, and greatness of parents\u201d \u2013 Director Pawan Prabha<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Sha\u1e63\u1e6dhip\u016brti, featuring Dr. Rajendra Prasad and actress Archana in lead roles, with Rupesh playing the hero and also producing the film under the MAA AAIE Productions banner, is directed by Pawan Prabha. Akanksha Singh plays the female lead. The film is set to release on May 30. As the release date approaches, director Pawan Prabha<\/span> shared many insights about the film. Here\u2019s what he had to say:<\/span><\/p>\n

* I studied hotel management. Everyone in my family is traditionally into music. But from a young age, I developed a strong interest in films. I believe cinema can be a medium to convey good values. That belief is what eventually brought me into the industry. I worked in the direction department for the film Fitting Master. In fact, I even appear in a small scene in that film.<\/span><\/p>\n

* There was a long gap in my film journey. During these years, I understood what cinema truly is. For Sha\u1e63\u1e6dhip\u016brti, I explored many places. From the beginning, I was fixed on having Ilaiyaraaja sir onboard. Many questioned how I could possibly bring him in. Family dramas require a large cast, and scheduling dates takes time. Shooting itself takes a while. But I was determined to make this film. That\u2019s why it took so many years.<\/span><\/p>\n

* I come from a large joint family. I know what it means to be surrounded by love\u2014from my grandfather, grandmothers, aunts, and uncles. But nowadays, some people see even their parents as a burden. Some are abandoning them on the streets. I made Sha\u1e63\u1e6dhip\u016brti to showcase the greatness of parents and the value of their love. The film, releasing on May 30, will have many surprising elements that go beyond what has been shown in the promos so far.<\/span><\/p>\n

* From the beginning, I had complete clarity about Sha\u1e63\u1e6dhip\u016brti. It takes immense courage to ask artists like Rajendra Prasad garu or Archana garu for a second take. If they ask why, I should be in a position to explain clearly and convincingly. I had to be prepared to tell them exactly how to perform. I transitioned their characters from a younger look to an older one. I portrayed Archana garu as a strict mother and Rajendra Prasad garu as a jovial father.<\/span><\/p>\n

* Everyone has praised the Sha\u1e63\u1e6dhip\u016brti trailer. People feel there\u2019s something special in the film. Particularly, many are talking about the background score. There\u2019s also a vintage portion in the film.<\/span><\/p>\n

* For an emotional drama like Sha\u1e63\u1e6dhip\u016brti\u2014a story centered on parental sentiment\u2014music is very important. That\u2019s why I wanted Ilaiyaraaja sir for this project. I shot the entire story in the Godavari region. I first narrated the story to Rupesh garu. Initially, he didn\u2019t plan on producing it. But after hearing the story, he completely took it upon himself. It was because of him that I got to meet Ilaiyaraaja sir. When I narrated the story to Raja sir, I told him, \u201cThis story is set on the banks of the Godavari\u2026 such a story needs your music.\u201d What people say about him outside is all wrong\u2014he gave us multiple tune options for just one song. We even filmed some making videos while he was composing.<\/span><\/p>\n

* Ilaiyaraaja sir asked me to narrate the story without song situations. He said he would decide where songs should come. When I went for the first composition, he played the pallavi (refrain) on the harmonium immediately after I described the situation. Then he asked, \u201cIs this enough? Is this what you expected? Or should I try something else?\u201d He gave us multiple options for every song and composed all of them within moments. Chaitanya Prasad garu, Rehman garu, and Keeravani garu wrote beautiful lyrics for this film.<\/span><\/p>\n

* Initially, I thought Chaitanya Prasad garu and Rehman garu would each write three songs. But after hearing the tunes, I changed my mind. I felt someone like Keeravani garu would be a better fit. I discussed this with Rupesh garu and Chaitanya Prasad garu. Chaitanya Prasad garu said, \u201cIt would be great if Keeravani garu wrote a song under Ilaiyaraaja garu\u2019s musical direction.\u201d So, we approached Keeravani garu\u2014and he immediately agreed. That was a big stroke of luck for me.<\/span><\/p>\n

* Both Rupesh and Akanksha acted wonderfully. Rupesh\u2019s character has many layers. Akanksha plays a traditional Telugu girl. Her role is quite unique. After this film, she will definitely have a brighter future.<\/span><\/p>\n

* Sha\u1e63\u1e6dhip\u016brti is a completely fictional film. The characters in it can\u2019t exist in real life. The character played by Rajendra Prasad garu is not something you\u2019d find in the outside world. To believe in such a story and invest in it is no ordinary thing. When we narrate a story, if the producer feels what we feel, only then can the film move forward. Producing films like this is much harder than directing them. Our Sha\u1e63\u1e6dhip\u016brti is coming as a strong family emotional drama. It will linger in people\u2019s hearts for days. My film is like a nourishing home-cooked meal. The censor board didn\u2019t suggest a single cut for our movie.<\/span><\/p>\n

* I already have a few projects ready after Sha\u1e63\u1e6dhip\u016brti. The stories are finalized. I\u2019ll announce all the details soon. But with this film, I\u2019ve learned a lot\u2014which will definitely help me in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
