It’s a name that is familiar to most film buffs and it’s time for yet another absolutely ‘clean’ entertainer. Not just the director, the producer too, is a popular guy. That’s the ‘waiting’ line for ‘Kerintha’ that had Sai Kiran Adivi almost ending up with a sore throat, wielding the megaphone and getting relatively newcomers to act the way he wanted, before the camera.
‘Kerintha’, that releases on Friday, also saw a premiere on Thursday evening with many a celebrity coming to the Prasad’s Preview Theatre. This is Mr. Sai Kiran’s third as a director and people vividly remember him as the director of the hugely-popular ‘Vinayakudu’ (2008) and followed it up by directing and producing the sequel ‘Village-lo Vinayakudu’ a year later.
Now his third directorial venture has ‘Dil’ Raju as producer. Asked about what the film was about, Mr. Sai Kiran said it was more about real-life characters and revolved around youth. “It is completely a clean entertainer for all age groups. Myself and Mr. Raju worked very hard on the script, shooting parts and going back to re-jig the script and shoot it all over again. That is why it took us a lot of time,” he explained.
