By Ians English
Filmmaker
Kodi
Ramakrishna
says
his
forthcoming
Telugu
fantasy
thriller
Avataram
is
loosely
based
on
a
real
incident
in
Kerala.
He
says
it's
about
a
woman's
fight
against
a
devil
and
the
graphics
used
will
the
film's
high
points.
"The
story
is
loosely
based
on
an
incident
in
Kerala
that
I
came
across
recently.
It's
about
a
woman
who
takes
the
devil
head-on
with
her
ability
to
do
something
extraordinary.
I
made
some
changes
to
the
original
story
and
adapted
it
to
the
screen," Kodi
Ramakrishna
told
IANS.
"Like
my
previous
films
such
as
Ammoru
and
Arundhati,
this
film
too
shall
be
high
on
graphics.
This
time
we
have
upped
the
ante
and
roped
in
foreign
technicians
to
work
on
the
visual
effects,
which
is
sure
to
catch
the
attention
of
the
film-goers," Kodi
Ramakrishna
added.
Kannada
actress
Radhika
will
play
the
lead
in
the
film
Avataram,
which
will
also
feature
senior
actress
Bhanupriya
in
an
important
role.
"I
feel
Radhika
is
an
exceptionally
good
actress.
The
audience
will
feel
the
same
after
they
watch
her
on
screen.
This
is
a
very
dear
project
as
I
spent
more
than
two
years
on
it," said
Ramakrishna.
Also
starring
Rishi,
Annapoorna
and
Sathya
Prakash
in
important
roles,
Avataram
is
slated
to
release
February
27.
