The shooting of ‘Kantri’ directed by Meher Ramesh and produced by Chalasani Aswanidutt on the banner of Vyjayanti Movies with Young Tiger NT Ramarao as hero was formally launched with puja activities at Aswanidutt house on 14th, September.
The film would go to sets very soon. The director of the film is the protégé of versatile director Puri Jagannath and is making his debut through this film.
It may be mentioned here that ‘Andhrawala’ of NTR directed by Puri Jagannath was a dud in Telugu, while the same film was remade in Kannada and that was a big hit there.
Speaking on the occasion, NTR says, ‘Now that I am enjoying the success of ‘Yamadonga’ directed by SS Rajamouli. That success gave me a renewed vigour and strength and my pleasure was doubled. I thank Jakkanna (Rajamouli) in this regard.

Mega producer Chalasani Aswanidutt is producing a film ‘Kantri’ on the banner of Vyjayanti Movies with Meher Ramesh as director and NTR in the title role.
Meher Ramesh proved his calibre by making the Kannada version of ‘Andhrawala’ a super hit, though its Telugu original was proved a dud.
The film is all set to go to sets on September 14.
Puri Jagannath had started the tradition of keeping ’slander words’ as titles with his film ‘Idiot’. Again it was Puri Jagannath, who titled his film as ‘Pokiri’. With both the films becoming big hits, several slander words have come up including ‘Julayi, Pokirollu, Aawaragadu’ and others as titles.
Now a film is going to be launched with a title called ‘Kantri’.
Music director Manisharma is scoring music for the movie.
Presently, NTR’s latest flick ‘Yamadonga’ directed by Rajamouli is running successfully and proved a blockbuster.

Jiah Khan is the hot young beauty of Bollywood who made news with the film ‘Nishabd’ by pairing up with Amitabh Bachchan. She turned the heads of many as she has the oomph factor to seduce the senses. Now she caught the eyes of southern steam, and was booked in the film ‘Kanthree’ to pair up with NTR. Already, the Desamuduru beauty Hansika was chosen as one of the heroines.
Jiah expresses her happiness for hitting the south. She feels that south has a stand for itself on par with Bollywood. She also shared that she was said, the southern talent is unique and majority of the films made here are based on emotions.
So we have to see what emotion that Jiah is going to show now. It will be a fresh combination to see NTR, Jiah and Hansika together on screen.
