Telugu movie Eega, which is dubbed as Naan Ee in Tamil and Eecha
in Malayalam, has been in news ever since director SS Rajamouli
announced it. This live action graphical film, which stars actors like
Sudeep, Naani and Samantha in the lead roles, is one of the most awaited
South Indian films of 2012.
The movie is an experimental film with mainstream emotions and
financial viability. It revolves around the hero, who is killed by the
villain and he is reborn as Eega, which happens to remember what
happened in its last birth. The rest of the story is about its
indomitable effort to irritate villain and take revenge on him.
Eega means a housefly, which itself is the hero in the movie. Ashta
Chemma fame Nani is the protagonist, Kannada actor Sudeep plays the
antagonist. Samantha is playing the female lead in it. KK Senthil Kumar
has handled cinematography and Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao has edited the
film.
Eega has five beautiful songs, which have been composed by
MM Keeravani. Ramajogayya Sastry, Anantha Sreeram, Chaitanya Prasad and
Keeravani have penned one song each in the album. The songs of the film
have won the heart of movie buffs, who are eagerly waiting to see the
film on screen.
Eega went on floors in 2010 and it was initially planned to
be released in April 2012. But the makers of the film kept on postponing
its release due to delay in its extensive CGI and VFX work. The film,
which is produced by D Suresh Babu under Suresh Productions banner, has
been made with a whopping budget of Rs 35 crore.
However, the movie Eega has 90 minutes of visual effects and
realistic animation and major share of its budget has been spent on the
special effects. It is slated to release on July 6. The movie, which
has the brand name of SS Rajamouli, is expected to set a new record at
the Tollywood Box Office.
