<i>Yevadaithe Naakenti</i> for Jan 5 release

Directed by V Samudra and produced by Sama Chandrasekhar Reddy on the banner of Kaushik Movies with Rajasekhar and Samvrita in the lead, Yevadaithe Naakenti is likely to be released on January 5. Producer Chandrasekhar Reddy says, 'Rajasekhar is once again playing the role of an angry youngman and the film would be with political backdrop. The hero's characterization would reflect Rajasekhar's mage. Shooting of over 70 per cent of the film was completed so far. We are taking up balance talkie shooting on the one hand and dubbing and other post-production works on the other. We will release the audio of the film in December.' Director Samudra says, 'The film is being remade from the successful Malayalam film Lion. We made necessary changes to the original to suit the Telugu nativity. The film has a good emotional drama to suit all classes of audiences. Another speciality of the film is that Mumaith Khan, the item number danseuse is playing a special role in this film.
