The story behind Gautamiputra's poster concept
- IndiaGlitz, [Friday,April 22 2016]
The poster of the just-released Gautamiputra Satakarni is a feminist's dream. Taking a leaf out of the legendary warrior's life and times, director Krish took a creative decision: to prefix the names of technicians and producer with the name of their mother. Thus, it's not just Krish but 'Anjanaputra' Krish. DSP is 'Shiromaniputra' Devi Sri Prasad. The producer is 'Kamalaputra' Rajeev Reddy. And so on.
Speaking to IndiaGlitz, designer Bhanu says, "We went by the director's idea. Earlier, he thought of doing it only with cinema credits, but later, he had a change of mind. So, we designed the poster accordingly."
Balayya's fans must be gung-ho about the logo as it announces the arrival of the warrior-king with gusto. What is the logo conveying? "The designing of 'ka' in the word Satakarni is inspired by the warrior-king's 'abharanam'," Bhanu tells IndiaGlitz.
