After producing path breaking films like Aithe, Anukokunda Oka Roju and Amma Cheppindi, Just Yellow Cinema is producing a film titled Katha with Genelia as heroine by introducing Srinivas Raga as director. The shooting of the movie is started today at SOS Children’s Village in Hyderabad. The unit members arranged a press meet –
Katha is a thriller- Gangaraju Gunnam
Producer Gangaraju Gunnam said, “We are taking three years gap because our earlier film Amma Cheppindi didn’t do well at box office. We didn’t get exciting talent approaching us after Aithe and Amma Cheppindi. When Srinivas approached with a new story we liked it very much. It will be a new genre film for Genelia. Katha basically a thriller with love content in it.”
Teacher in this movie – Genelia
Genelia said, “The script of the movie is good and it is a new genre for me. I am doing the role of a teacher in this movie.”
Director Srinivas said, “I feel fortunate to work in such a reputed and respected banner like Just Yellow. I am hopeful of living up to the expectations. I assisted Kodi Rama Krishna for films like Navvutoo Bratakalira, Trinetrudu and Jenda in the past. I would like to thank Gangaraju Gunnam for offering me this film without bothering about my background.”
Actor Arun said, “I graduated from Madras Christian College in Journalism. I am presently doing lead in Hindi version of Happy Days. I am doing the role of the writer who pens the story in this movie.”
Music director SK Balachandran said, “I am one of the three music directors worked for Brahmastram film. I worked for 4 TV serials produced by Gangaraju Gunnam. There will be four songs in this movie. There is lot of score for background music in Katha.”
Katha story takes place in a hill station. Most of the film will be shot at Araku. This film is slated for Dasara release. Prakash Raju, Raghubabu and Shafi play other important roles. Andrew handles cinematography. Gangaraju Gunnam also pens dialogues for this movie.
