The reason for naming this movie ‘Andhra King Taluka’?
This title has a lot of meaning. You will understand it when you watch the movie. So far, the promotional content released from this movie has received a very positive response. This movie takes place in 2002 time. Then the two states were united. So it was put like that. We are also releasing this movie in Kannada with the same title.

The reason for casting Upendra Gari for the character of Andhra King?
I saw Rana doing an interview with Upendra. In it, Upendra said, ‘I am a real man in the film than outside.’ That word really connected with me. That’s when I thought the character Surya would be like this. We approached him for the role of Surya. Upendra Gari has hard core fans. All the stars are seen in Surya. Upendra garu is a great human being. After meeting him I got to know more about him.

What was Ram’s reaction when he told this story?
Mythri movie makers were very excited when they told this story. Ram garu has already worked with many big star directors. I am a director who has done only one film. He called and asked if he could tell the story in 20 minutes. I have already written the complete story. All night I thought about what to say to him and what not to say. I told him the story together. Heard the full story. Then I got a call from Mythri Movie Makers. He said, ‘This is the story of him doing OK in the first sitting’.

What will Bhagyashree’s role be like?
Bhagyashree’s role is very important in this story. It is like seeing a life. Every character like Murali Sharma, Rao Ramesh, Satya, Rahul Ramakrishna has an emotion.

About the music of this movie?
Vivek Mervin has given an amazing album. They got more attention from the audience. The music in the film is very special. The audience will enjoy it a lot.
