Jagapathi calls his 'Gaayam-2' a perfect sequel

  • IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,December 03 2009]

Durga is a character that the Telugu audience cannot easily forget. Fifteen years later, he wants to make a comeback. In an honest sequel, to be directed by Praveen Sri, blue-eyed boy of Ram Gopal Varma, Jagapathi Babu will once again play the typical character that catapulted him to the starry orbit.

We all know that Jagapathi was seriously contemplating the idea with Praveen for many months. The idea is finally materialising. Produced by Keerthi Creations, Gayam 2's other cast has not yet been announced.

The actor feels that this is not a superficial sequel, but is true to its title. It will essentially be a chronicle of how Durga lives 15 years since.

The film will go on floors in the end of this month. It will be shot in Hyderabad and Vizag. The producers are planning to release the film in the first week of April.
