The logo of actor Kamal Haasan's upcoming Telugu film Eenadu (Unnai Pol Oruvan in Tamil), directed by debutant Chakri, was unveiled at Taj Banjara hotel in Hyderabad on Saturday in the presence of Telugu tinseltown bigwigs including former Union Minister and Tollywood’s senior figure Dasari Narayana Rao and D. Rama Naidu. The gathering included Kamal Haasan and Venkatesh, Chakri, Neelakanta, Srinu Vytla, Daggupati Rana and others.
"Kamal Haasan is the one and the only actor who dares and challenges filmmaking norms. His experiments paved way for new innovations in the South Indian film industry. Generally, the career of an actor would have just a couple of films to speak of the greatness of his career, but it is not so with Kamal. He is one actor who has more than 50 movies as blockbusters in his career," Dasari said.
Kamal Haasan said: "I was supposed to get introduced in Telugu through Dasari’s movie. It was a painful decision to lose his movie. I like Dasari movies, especially MLA Edukondalu and wanted to act in its Tamil remake. I signed Chakri as director because he is a qualified filmmaker. The greatest hits in my career were given by Telugu directors and Telugu audiences. I will do a straight Telugu movie very soon. I am sure of Eenadu’s success because I am confident of Telugu audiences' encouragement for good cinema."
The makers, UTV Motion Pictures and Kamal’s Raj Kamal Movies, are planning to release the film on September 18. Amma Art Creations has bagged the distribution rights of the Telugu version. Eenadu is a remake of super hit Bollywood film A Wednesday, starring Naseeruddin Shah and Anupam Kher in the lead roles.
