Pawan's Satyagrahi launched with fanfare
- IndiaGlitz, [Monday,March 27 2006]
Pawan Kalyan has lot of anger in him. Against the inequities and the injustices in the world around him.
A sensitive man, Pawan often has talked in private about he feels about the whole thing.
But now he will also be speaking about that in the open through his new film Satyagrahi ----Satyame Naa Ayudham.
To be directed by him, Satyagrahi, launched with much fanfare on Saturday, is a movie about student politics and one man's crusade for justice. In spirit, the film's story will be what Pawan himself has been feeling in his longing for an equal society.
Pawan, who normally keeps a low profile during his film launch, made it a point to speak in strong tones. That reflected his essential conviction and courage.
Before anyone can think that the movie is just about politics, Pawan said it was his way fighting for justice for the average man. As we all have noticed, the songs in his movies reflect that spirit. 'Now I am doing that in a full-length movie,' he said. Pawan, who said that Chiranjeevi could not be present as because he was in Chennai, was, however, happy that those who are close to Chiru were present.
The movie, in a nutshell, is about a student leader fighting against the politics entrenched in the system.
The movie boasts of some of the best names in the Indian industry. A R Rehman is scoring the music while P C Sreeram cranks the film.
A M Rathinam, whose Bangaram with Pawan is almost ready , produces it.
The story, screenplay and direction is by Pawan himself.
The launch was a big event with Dasari Narayana Rao, Allu Aravind, Venkatesh, Ramanaidu, V V Vinayak, Allu Arjun, Nitin and others at hand at the Annapoorna studios.
Dasari Narayana Rao made the first clap while the camera was switched on by Allu Aravind.
Dasari said there was power and style in whatever Pawan does.
V V Vinayak pointed out that Pawan looked for new things. Satyagrahi is a manifestation of that spirit.
Allu Aravind spoke about the fire in Pawan against injustice. 'To make a film like Satyagrahi needs lot of guts,'he said. He also opined that Bangaram would be a super hit.
Venkatesh wished Satyagrahi becomes a big hit.
A M Rathinam said 'Bangaram audio is super hit. It will be the same with Satyagrahi too. It will match the high expectations'
He also announced that the movie was being made in Hindi, Telugu and Bengali.
Among other present were Pawan's wife Renu and son Akiro.
