How did ‘Srikakulam Sherlock Holmes’ start? The reason why Vennela Kishore was cast in the title role?
This is a story about seven people. Vennela Kishore plays the role of a detective. Each character is very important in the story. The role of a detective in this is with a bit of humor. Vennela Kishore was a perfect fit for that role. He took the Uttarandhra accent as a challenge and learned it hard and made the film. The story has a balance of crime, comedy, emotion, thrill and love.
Reason for taking Srikakulam back drop?
This story takes place in 1991. As told in the teaser, Rajiv Gandhi went to Sriperumbudur on the same day after completing his Vizag tour and died there. No one cares about small incidents when a major incident occurs. On the same day, several other incidents took place. The connection between these is done with a very interesting screenplay with the fictional character Sherlock Holmes. No one can predict this story. There will be a lot of suspense and thrill.
Reason for tagging Chantabbai taluka?
Chiranjeevi’s ‘Chantabboy’ comes to mind as a detective movie in Telugu. Sherlock Holmes is a Hollywood fictional character. It may not be familiar to some. That is why the tag was put as per the suggestion of Vamsi Nandipati so that everyone can be connected. In that too ‘Taluka’ is now trending.
Srikakulam Sherlock Holmes What is the title justification?
Ammananna is the assistant of the detective in this movie. Mother’s name is Sharmila, father’s name is Loknath, and his name is Om Prakash. Among these three names, Sherlock Holmes was given with the sounding of the first letter.
About the music?
Sunil Kashyap gave the songs. The songs have already gone viral. RR Gnani did. It came out amazingly.
What genre are you going to do next?
I am going to do a film in the next emotional genre. The script is ready.
