Director
Gunasekhar's
dream
project
Rudhramadevi
is
finally
all
set
to
hit
screens
this
Friday
without
any
further
disturbances.
The
director
cum
producer
of
the
film
is
often
quizzed
if
he
has
found
any
treasure
of
Kakatiya
Dynasty,
to
actually
completely
the
film
with
such
grandeur,
despite
of
many
financial
burdens.
Reacting
to
the
question
at
a
recently
held
media
meet,
director
revealed
on
a
lighter
note
that
he
indeed
found
the
Kakatiyan
treasure
and
it
is
Rudramadevi's
story.
He
further
added
that
the
treasure
itself
attracted
the
huge
start
cast
it
needed,
like
Anushka,
Allu
Arjun
and
Rana
to
its
side
and
eventually
the
huge
budget.
Set
against
the
backdrop
of
Kakatiya
dynasty,
the
film
narrates
the
life
story
of
powerful
warrior
queen
Rudhramadevi.
Anushka
too
joined
in
to
explain
the
potentiality
of
the
script.
"What
really
drew
me
to
the
project
was
the
emotional
turmoil
Rudhramadevi
went
through
as
a
woman.
It
was
so
intense.
She
still
ruled
with
compassion,
cared
for
her
people
and
kingdom
more
than
her
own
life," said
Anushka,
"This
is
Gunasekar's
story,
so
I
chose
to
see
it
from
his
point
view.
I
trusted
his
vision
and
blindly
followed
his
lead.
My
character
was
developed
based
on
research,
including
discussions
with
several
historians,"
she
added.
