Sharwanand starrer Sreekaram pre-release event that saw the presence of megastar Chiranjeevi was a grand success. The team has celebrated grand release function today in Hyderabad with TRS Working President KTR gracing the occasion as chief guest.
Director Harish Shankar who attended the event said that he watched the film and was awestruck by the concept. He requested KTR to mull over giving tax exemption as he feels the film that tells about the importance of farming deserves it.
Sharwanand said, “I wholeheartedly thank KTR for coming to bless us, despite your busy schedules. Apparently, the story of the film made him to come for the function. Sreekaram tells youth can do. KTR is a youth icon for the entire country. It’s my responsibility to do the film. It’s indeed your responsibility to watch the film. KTR once told me that if you are doing something good, call me. When I messaged him whether he could come for the event, he called and gave his word. While Kishor wrote the story, Sai Madhav Burra gave life with his dialogues. You will see the beauty of Tirupathi in the film. You will feel like going to your hometown and meeting your family and friends, if you watch the film. There will be tension working with a debut director. But, my producers took all the tensions to relax me. I’ll always be thankful to them. We hardly get to do films like Sreekaram, though we frequently work in commercial films.”
KTR said, “I thank brother Sharwanand for welcoming me for the event. I’ve watched Sreekaram teaser and 9 minute of the film and I was really blown away. This is the film that has been made with real heart. Kishor, you should not change. Be the simple person you are. We should complement the producers for taking massive risk. As said by Harish it’s tough to balance aesthetics and economics. Incidentally, Sharwa’s first film was Gamyam and director’s film is Sreekaram. Sharwa does wide variety of films. I’m a big movie buff. I wish this will give real satisfaction to him as an actor. KCR is a passionate farmer. He used to tell many things about farming. There is always constant scope to development of agriculture. During lockdown, everything else was shut down, but harvesting continued. This generation should show interest in farming. They should come forward to give all the support to farmers. They should pressurize governments for the welfare of farmers. I will try maximum for tax exemption for the film, as we have got only two days’ time. I request you all not to encourage piracy.”
The film’s producers thanked KTR for coming for the event. “You are an inspiration to youth. Your presence here will help the film reach a long way,” said they.
