Prachanda
Ravana,

the
dynamic
star
of
Kannada
films,
directed
by

Srinivasaprasad
will

has
acted

in

stages

career.
But
he
has
never
done
a
mythological
film
before
and
is
very
anxious
about
the
result.
The
film
is
based
on
the
50-year-old
theatre
play
of
the
same
title
written
by
Kanagal
Prabhakara
Sastry,
stalwart
writer
of
Kannada
cinema
and
theatre.
The
play
is
very
popular
in
Karnataka
and
Devraj
was
chosen
to
act
through
an
SMS
poll
conducted
by
New
Wave
Production
team.
Bharat
Bagavathar
plays
Hanuman
while
TV
actress
Rajeswari
is
in
the
role
of
Seetha.
Nitin
is
in
Lord
Sri
Rama's
role.
