Actor Satyadev has earned appreciation for his performances in several films, but he has been waiting for a big commercial success for the last few years. Now, he is coming up with Rao Bahadur, a horror period drama directed by Venkatesh Maha, known for C/o Kancharapalem.
The film is produced by Chinta Gopalakrishna Reddy, Anurag Reddy, and Sarath Chandra, while Mahesh Babu and Namrata Shirodkar’s GMB Entertainments is presenting the project. The teaser of Rao Bahadur was unveiled on Friday evening at a grand event.
Speaking at the teaser launch, Satyadev thanked director Puri Jagannadh, who introduced him as a lead actor with Jyothi Lakshmi, which was released on June 12, 2015. “I will always be grateful to Puri garu. I am very happy to launch the teaser of my film Rao Bahadur today,” said Satyadev.
He added that whenever a good and unique film comes from any industry, Telugu audiences always encourage it. “Rao Bahadur is also releasing on July 3, and I believe audiences from other industries will appreciate this film in the same way,” he said.
“This film will be something where we can proudly say that a crazy film has come from Telugu cinema. Whenever we go abroad, we proudly talk about films like Baahubali and RRR. In the same way, people will talk about Rao Bahadur too. This is my promise,” said the actor.
Satyadev further said that the team made the film in a way that every Telugu audience will feel proud.
“Director Venkatesh Maha has worked on this film by putting his heart and soul into it. Anurag, Sarath, and everyone who worked on this film have immense passion for cinema. We are crazy about cinema, and I feel very proud to be part of such a team,” he said.
Talking about director Venkatesh Maha, Satyadev said he considers himself fortunate to be an actor during the time when filmmakers like Maha are creating unique films.
“This film will definitely shock you all. July 4 is my birthday, and I hope all of you will watch this film and give me a birthday gift,” said the actor.
Deepa Thomas is playing the female lead opposite Satyadev, while Smaran Sai is composing the music for the film.
