Naresh coming as Betting Bangarraju

  • IndiaGlitz, [Saturday,January 09 2010]

Allari Naresh has signed on the dotted line for a new film with Usha Kiran Movies, to be directed by E Satthi Babu. Nidhi is paired opposite him. The film is produced by Ramoji Rao and has just gone on the floors.

This is yet another comedy caper from Naresh. The details of the story and the plot haven't yet been divulged. However, it is understood that the film is essentially comedic, with copious doses of sensitive emotions. Given the banner's penchant for producing films laced with a blend of emotions, you can expect a laugh riot-cum-emotional film.

Kota Srinivasa Rao, Chalapathi Rao, Giri Babu, Jayaprakash Reddy, LB Sriram, Shankar Melkote and others form the casting. The story is by Lankapalli Srinivas. Dialogue is by Nagaraju Gandham.

Shekar Chandra is lending the music, while Ananta Sriram is penning the lyrics. Satti Babu is writing the screenplay, apart from wielding the megaphone.
