The shooting of 'Andariki Vandanalu' produced by Palavali Jagannatha Reddy on the banner of Bhavishya Arts was launched at Annapurna Studio on August 24.

Popular script and dialogue writer Marudhuri Raja is turning a director and is making his debut through this movie, which has Brahmaji, Raghubabu and Jeeva as heroes and Vijayachander in an important role.

Senior director K Raghavendra Rao and writer Paruchuri Gopalakrishna performed the puja activities. Pokuri Baburao of Ee Taram Films gave the clap, while Tammareddy Bharadwaja switched on the camera for the muhurat shot.

Speaking on the occasion, Marudhuri Raja says, 'I entered the film industry some 18 years ago and scripted several stories and dialogues for various films. I had got a good subject, a good producer and a good debutant music director Sai Karthik, besides technicians and artistes who are very cooperative for my debut film. We are going to give a good message and of course in a satirical way. There are six songs in the film.'

Producer says, 'This is a different from routine film.'
