Speaking to DH, Ranjitha Subramanya said that they never even thought of producing a film, a couple of years ago. "The process unfolded, when a team of youths, with an ambition to do something new and interesting joined hands. Everything fell in place and the film is ready for release in April or May, she said. The film has two co-producers Geeta Patil and Kiran Kumar.
"From the beginning, we had a plan to take the film to the international-level. But, the journey was not easy, as the team had to face various hurdles. The team has worked hard to make the film, with a lot of suspense and adventure elements to attract all people. Due to the Covid-19 crisis, the film release was postponed, but the teaser and the trailer will be released soon," she said.
The film has several Rangayana artistes and stars Deepak Patel, Sinchana Chandra Mohan, Samarth Rampur Bharadwaj, Shreya and Hanumanthu. It is conceptualised on Dharma, as it is stated in Mahabharatha - Dharmo Rakshati Rakshitah, meaning Dharma protects those who uphold Dharma.
The film depicts the lives of a tribal community in forests in South India and unfolds after they lose an auspicious product that was safely guarded since decades. It involves suspense, adventure, around the story of Archaeology, three children and a tribe.
