“Uppena” introduces newcomer Vaisshnav Tej, brother of Sai Dharam Tej. This film also marks the debut of director Sukumar’s associate Buchi Babu Sana who helped Sukumar in the dialogue and screenplay of blockbuster ‘Rangasthalam’.
We all know the twist in the climax was the main highlight of “Rangasthalam”. Similarly, there is a shocking twist to the characterization of the film’s hero.
Tamil star Vijay Sethupathi who plays the role of Rayanam reportedly fell with this love story. So much so that he even bought the remake rights for the Tamil version. He is planning to produce it in Tamil with a new pair.
The twist has never been presented on the silver screen. So, that is what impressed Vijay Sethupathi.
The love story that deals with the conflict of caste differences is set in the backdrop of the Kakinada region.
Mythri Movie Makers is producing it. The film’s release date will be announced once the lockdown comes to an end.
