Ashta
Chemma,
starring
Swathi
of
Colours
fame
and
newcomer
Nani,
is
being
directed
by
Indraganti
Mohana
Krishna
and
produced
by
Rammohan
under
Art
Beat
Capital
Productions.
Over
the
weekend,
the
audio
was
launched
in
Hyderabad
with
a
lot
of
fanfare.
Venkatesh,
taking
time
off
from
his
hectic
shooting
schedule,
released
the
audio
for
which
music
is
scored
by
Kalyani
Malik.
The
director
and
producer
are
very
optimistic
about
the
outcome
of
the
movie.
They
felt
that
this
movie
would
go
a
long
way
in
cementing
Swathi's
reputation
as
an
actress;
they
also
complimented
the
entire
unit
for
their
hard
work
and
dedication.
At
the
function,
director
Mohanakrishna
said,
"The
film
was
made
with
love
and
entertainment
as
the
two
main
elements.
In
the
traditional
game
of
Ashta
Chemma,
the
players
draw
steps
one
after
the
other
for
a
win.
In
our
film
too,
two
couples
follow
similar
steps
to
win
each
other's
love."
As
Nani,
Srinivas,
Swathi
and
Bhargavi,
who
play
the
main
protagonists,
are
all
local
Andhras,
fluent
in
Telugu,
the
director
feels
this
fact
by
itself
is
one
of
the
highlights
of
the
film.
The
film
has
finished
the
shooting
schedules
and
is
in
post-production.
It
will
be
released
by
the
first
week
of
September.
