The
launch
dates
for
Kurukshetra
film
is
drawing
closer
and
the
pressure
on
the
casting
team
of
Kurukshetra
has
increased.
Until
last
week,
only
four
actors
were
finalized.
In
just
last
one
week,
two
more
characters
have
been
said
to
be
finalized.
As
the
pressure
mounted,
the
finalization
for
the
actors
are
picking
up
the
pace.
Until
now,
Duryodhana,
Krishna,
Dhritarashtra
and
Dronacharya
have
been
confirmed
by
the
film
team.
Apart
from
that,
the
role
of
a
dancer
and
Bhanumati
have
been
apparently
finalized
as
well,
but
have
not
been
officially
announced
yet.
Now,
it
is
the
time
for
Kunti's
role.
There
were
a
lot
of
speculations
in
Gandhinagar
as
to
who
would
portray
the
role
of
Kunti,
the
mother
of
Pandavas.
Now,
the
answer
to
that
has
been
found.
Apparently,
senior
and
veteran
actress,
Julie
Lakshmi,
will
be
essaying
Kunti's
role
in
Kurukshetra
movie.
Senior
actress
Lakshmi
has
previously
played
the
role
of
mother
to
many
actors
in
various
movies.
Accordingly,
the
film
team
has
taken
this
into
consideration
and
has
gone
forward
to
finalize
Lakshmi
as
Kunti.
This
is
yet
to
be
officially
announced.
As
of
now,
Darshan
as
Duryodhana,
Ravichandran
as
Krishna,
Srinivasa
Murthy
as
Dronacharya
and
Srinath
as
Dhritarashtra
has
been
announced.
Apart
from
that,
Hariprriya
as
Dancer,
Regina
Cassandra
as
Bhanumati
have
been
unofficially
finalized.
The
entire
cast
and
crew
will
only
be
revealed
on
July
23,
the
birthday
of
Muniratna,
the
producer
of
Kurukshetra.
