'Drinker Sai', starring Dharma and Aishwarya Sharma in lead roles, will hit the cinemas on December 27. Its Trailer launch event was held today.
The film is produced by Basavaraju Srinivas, Ismail Sheikh, and Basavaraju Laharidhar. Director Kiran Tirumalasetti has wielded the megaphone. Posani Krishna Murali, Srikanth Iyengar, Sameer, SS Kanchi, Bhadram, Kirrak Seetha, Ritu Chowdhury, Fun Bucket Rajesh, Raja Prajwal are playing different roles in 'Drinker Sai'. The cinematography is by Prashanth Ankireddy and editing is by Marthand K Venkatesh.
Cinematographer Prashanth Ankireddy said that the enjoyable movie will be loved by one and all.
Producer Ismail Sheikh said that the root story was molded into a developed story by the director. "Chandrabose Garu has written six wonderful songs that elevate the story even further. Dharma worked with great dedication, often retaking scenes to ensure perfection," he added.
Producer Laharidhar said that the content in the movie will go beyond what the promotional material has suggested so far. "It will appeal to both family audiences and youth," he added.
Executive Producer Lakshmi said that the film deserves to be watched by the family audience.
Actress Kirrak Seetha said that hers is not only a meaningful role in the movie but is also quite different from the ones she has played before.
Director Kiran Tirumalasetti said, "I shared my initial draft with Srinivas Garu, who advised seeking the blessings of the legendary Chiranjeevi Garu. I reimagined the story with a powerful social message. Fortunately, GK Mohan Garu conveyed my pitch to Chiranjeevi Garu, who graciously gave his nod. This pivotal moment marked the beginning of the film's journey under the direction of 'Drinker Sai'. Had he declined, the film would have remained just a dream."
The hero, Dharma, had received acting training from Satyanand. "After Prabhas, Dharma is the only one to have received rigorous training. We made sure to include youthful elements to attract the youth audience to the theaters," he added.
Hero Dharma said, "I have been passionate about movies since childhood. I used to dance to the songs of our star heroes' films. Some people criticized me after watching the movie trailer, but I am confident that no one will have negative opinions after watching the full film. We performed a screening for elderly people, and none of the 100 attendees had any complaints—they all said the movie was good. We also showed it to engineering college students, auto drivers, and masons, and received positive responses from everyone. No one in our team worked for money; we worked out of passion."
