Stalwarts raise a toast for 'Gang Leader' Cherry

  • IndiaGlitz, [Monday,March 12 2012]

Racha's audio release function saw one too many stalwarts making predictions about how big a hit Raccha will be. What was common in their speeches was that Charan will become much bigger after the release of this much-awaited flick. Here are excerpts from what Arjun, Vinayak, Rajamouli, Tamanna and NV Prasad spoke.

Allu Arjun revealed that he could not believe when he came to know that Cherry was doing a film with Sampath Nandi. This is a good sign. When a big star like Charan works with a new director, it gives hope to many people out there. I hope that Raccha lives up to its huge expectations, Arjun said.

Importantly, Bunny predicted that Raccha will break all the records in Andhra, Nizam and Ceded.

VV Vinayak made a stunning prediction. He said that the film will make Charan as big a phenomenon as Gang Leader had made Chiranjeevi. I watched three songs from this movie, and they are amazing. I thank Chiranjeevi for giving opportunity to a relatively new director.

Appreciating Sampath for bagging a film with Charan, Rajamouli said that Mani Sharma's Raccha will be as big an audio as Indira and Tagore were in Chiru's career and Khushi was in Pawan's career.

Paruchuri Gopalakrishna suggested that Raccha was a high-octane action movie. Will Charan keep quiet if someone falls behind Tamanna? He will kill you with the sword. This is the film's subject.

Tamanna said that Cherry was a simple person. Calling Mani Sharma's music superb, she said that she was very happy to celebrate the function in the presence of biggies. I feel like this is my debut film.

NV Prasad revealed that he had always wanted to do a film with Chiru since the days of Donga Mogudu. Chiranjeevi garus said that he will do the film for free. However, it could not go as per the plans. We wanted to do Annavaram with him. We did it ultimately with Pawan Kalyan. My wish to produce a Chiranjeevi film has remained a wish. I am happy that he has given me the opportunity to produce Raccha with his son. Charan is good-hearted like his father. He has the same sincerity towards his work. We will release the film simultaneously in Telugu, Tamil and Malayalam.
