Daaku Maharaaj, which is going to hit the screens on January 12th, is going to be a unique experience, say producer S Naga Vamsi and director Bobby Kolli. In a media interaction today, the duo spoke of the film’s highlights.
We wanted to make a better film than Rajinikanth garu’s Jailer. That was on our mind.
The trailer launch event will be held in Hyderabad on January 2nd. A pre-release event will be held in the US on the 4th. During that event, a song will also be unveiled. Another pre-release event will be held either in Mangalagiri or Vijayawada on the 8th.
It has been my dream to do a film with Balakrishna garu right from the time I entered the film industry. In the last 25 years, no other film has show the way we have presented him in Daaku Maharaaj. I can say it proudly.
Distributors know how to prioritize when there are multiple festival releases. They know the stakes. I am confident that Daaku Maharaaj is going to take spectacular openings.
I am not exaggerating but this film is better than Akhanda and Legend. You will tell me this right after the first half! People are going to talk about this movie more than they talk about those two movies.
Expectations from director Bobby after Waltair Veerayya are high. About the ticket rate hikes, my knowledge is as good as yours. The FDC Chairman (Dil Raju) is in the US currently. Once he is back, we might know more. His movie (Game Changer) is also up for a Sankranthi release as we all know.
In real life, Balakrishna garu reacts genuinely when people face issues. His character in Daaku Maharaaj is much like his real-life self. Daaku is like a Robinhood. The story takes place in the 1990s. In terms of action, story and visuals, this is my most superior movie.
Not just Balakrishna garu’s character, every single character is crucial in the larger scheme of things. The characters played by Bobby Deol, Shraddha Srinath and others have so much meat.
I and my producer grew up watching the movies of Chiranjeevi garu and Balakrishna garu. We directed all our efforts to ensure that we show the best version of Balakrishna garu in Daaku Maharaaj.
Dialogues, one-liners and action episodes in Balayya garu’s movies give the audience a high. Daaku Maharaaj goes beyond. When we watch acclaimed Malayalam movies, for example, we talk about the story. We want to give such an experience this time.
We have done world-creation in Daaku Maharaaj. This is going to be a visual experience. Even filmmakers from other languages are going to be inspired.
Besides the emotions and intensity that we attach with Balakrishna garu’s characters, Daaku Maharaaj has got more. There is also a mass song that is going to shake cinema halls. We are going to release it soon. It’s one of the best mass songs.
After Unstoppable, even kids have become his fans. We have made Daaku Maharaaj keeping every factor, including his US market, in mind.
