'Maanja' Trailer Launch Gallery

'Maanja', the dubbed version of 'Care of Footpath 2', stars Avika Gor ('Uyyala Jampala' fame), Deepp Pathak, Eesha Deol, Kishan Shrikanth in lead roles. The film is produced by Tummalappali Ramasathyanarayana Rao of Bhimavaram Talkies and is presented by Raj Kandukuri.

Dasari Narayana Rao says, "Dubbing films have a negative impact on small straight cinema. Therefore, I usually avoid events related to them. But 'Maanja' is an exception. It's because of the director (Kishan Shrikanth). He became a director when he was all of 9. His take comes with a lot of maturity."

The producer says, "Even though ours is a small movie, the support we are getting from Dasari garu is great. This is a mass entertainer with a very good subject."

The director says, "It's an emotional suspense thriller. Avika Gor is great in the movie. Esha Deol, Hema Malini's daughter, has breathed life with her performance. The film deals with what happens when three males and one female who are under 18 years of age get caught by the police."

Raj Kandukuri says, "Ramasathyanarayana Rao garu promotes small movies without bias. That's why he gets positive results always. Even though the director is very young, he has made the film so well."

Dialogues are by Chandra Vattikooti. Songs are by Challa Bhagya Lakshmi and Suresh Gangula.

The film will hit the screens on Oct 1 in about 65 theatres.
