Ram Gopal Varma releases poster of his film about NTR

-

Nikki Galrani and Gautham Karthik. Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma on Tuesday released the first look poster of his upcoming Telugu film Lakshmi’s NTR.

The film is about the life of legendary actor and former Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao (NTR).

“NTR is a name to reckon with every Telugu-speaking individual. He was not just a great actor but a leader with unpreceden­ted following. I’m very proud to direct a film on his life,” Varma said.

On Tuesday, he shared the first look poster of the film on his official Facebook page.

A note was shared with the poster, which featured a NTR’s wife Lakshmi stepping into a room and NTR sitting in the back.

“One single step that created love in the heart of one man but also hatred in hundreds. But that single step also re-motivated him to once again make millions of people love him. This is the story of Lakshmi’s NTR,” Varma wrote.

“It’s a love story full of hatred, jealousy, power mongering, backstabbi­ng and above all unbelievab­le inter-relationsh­ip conflicts,” he added.

Varma has decided that instead of making the biopic from the perspectiv­e of NTR, he will narrate it from the standpoint of his wife Lakshmi Parvathi.

Varma confirmed the film will hit the screens next year. —
