The
trailer,
which
is
a
shade
less
than
2
minutes
doesn't
reveal
much
in
terms
of
the
film's
plot,
however,
it
shows
Tej
as
a
passionate
IAS
officer
Panja
Abhiram,
who
is
at
loggerheads
with
an
arrogant
politician
Visakha
Vani
(played
by
Ramya
Krishna).
As
the
trailer
progresses,
it
only
gets
more
intense
as
Abhiram
conveys
the
true
meaning
of
'Republic'.
The
trailer
also
has
references
to
genocide
and
criminality
which
has
intrigued
the
fans,
who
are
now
eagerly
awaiting
the
film's
grand
release.
Directed
by
Deva
Katta,
the
film
features
Aishwarya
Rajesh
as
the
female
lead.
Jagapathi
Babu
is
reportedly
playing
Sai
Dharam
Tej's
father
in
the
political
drama.
Character
actors
including
Subbaraju,
Rahul
Ramakrishna
and
Sai
Dheena
are
playing
prominent
roles
in
the
film.
Launched
in
2020,
Republic's
story
has
been
jointly
penned
by
Kiran
Jay
Kumar
and
Deva
Katta.
Initially,
the
film
was
slated
to
hit
the
theatres
on
June
4,
2021,
however,
the
makers
decided
to
postpone
the
release
date
due
to
the
second
wave
of
pandemic
and
the
subsequent
lockdown.
With
music
composed
by
Mani
Sharma,
the
film
has
cinematography
and
editing
carried
out
by
Sukumar
M
and
KL
Praveen.
On
a
related
note,
post
the
horrific
road
accident
on
September
10,
Sai
Dharam
Tej
is
currently
recovering.
According
to
the
latest
medical
report,
the
young
actor
is
conscious
and
breathing
on
his
own
without
any
external
support.
