Trailer Review: 'Okkadu Migiladu'
- IndiaGlitz, [Saturday,August 19 2017]
'Okkadu Migiladu' sees Manchu Manoj in dual roles. As a 'liberation fighter', whose character is fashioned after the slained LTTE leader Prabhakaran, he will be seen in the role of a terrorist (or should we say militant?). In the second role, the Manchu actor will be seen as a college student who grows into a leader.
The film is set in two different time periods. The militant lived and fought in the past, and the college student seems to be a descendant of a refugee for whose rights the other character had waged a war. It took Manoj to shed 12 kgs to essay the second character.
Going by the trailer, this is as yet the most hero-oriented film in Manoj's career. He is intense, his voice delivers a punch and a pall of rage and grief, his energy is palpable.
Directed by Ajay Andrews Nuthakki, 'OM' has Anisha Ambrose of 'Run' and 'Fashion Designer S/o Ladies Tailor' fame as the female lead. She will be seen in the role of a journo.
The film will hit the screens in September.
