As per reports, the narrative of the second half of Guntur Kaaram will largely depend on the scene just prior to the interval.
Telugu star Mahesh Babu continued his streak of commercial success last year with Sarkaru Vaari Paata, although the film received mixed reviews from critics. With the aim of attaining critical success as well, he has now teamed up with both Trivikram and SS Rajamouli for their respective film projects. While the Mahesh Babu-Rajamouli project still has not received a title officially yet and is being referred to as SSMB29, the Trivikram project, titled Guntur Kaaram, is accelerating at a rapid pace.
Guntur Kaaram has both high hopes as well as risks associated with it because Khaleja, the last film Mahesh Babu and Trivikram did together was a big box office failure, although a decade later, it is considered a cult film. This time, Trivikram is leaving no stone unturned to deliver full-scale entertainment and that is why he is reportedly planning a huge pre-interval scene.
According to sources, a huge set is being created at Saradhi Studios for the pre-interval sequence of the film. A source close to the film production said that the narrative of the second half of Guntur Kaaram will largely depend on the scene just prior to the interval and thus the director wants the impact of the scene to be spectacular.
It is also being reported that lead actress Meenaakshi Chaudhary, who replaced Pooja Hegde in the film, will be introduced in the pre-interval scene and will have a crucial role in the second half. This has not, however, been confirmed as of yet.
Earlier, it was reported that some scenes of the movie were scrapped and reshot again as Trivikram was not satisfied with the results. This shows that the director is really not looking for compromise this time and has thus piqued the excitement of fans all the more. The movie is going to be released on January 13 next year, coinciding with Sankranti. The film will be released in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam.
