Purushothamudu teaser: Raj Tharun is a common man turned messiah

Raj Tharun is gearing up for his next release Purushothamudu. The makers of the film released their official teaser on Thursday.

By the looks of it, Raj Tharun plays Rachit Ram, a common man who somehow emerges as a saviour for an entire village, fighting a larger system run by a businessman. The teaser also invokes many mythological figures to describe the protagonist's battle, only to end with Rachit describing himself as a common man.

Here's the teaser

Purushothamudu marks the film debut of its leading lady, Hasini Sudhir. Additionally, the film boasts an impressive ensemble cast, including Ramya Krishnan, Prakash Raj, Brahmanandam, Brahmaji and Murali Sharma, among others. 

The film is produced by Ramesh Tejawat and Prakash Tejawat under the banner Shree Sridevi Productions. Ram Bhimana, meanwhile, marks his return to film direction after 7 years – he had previously directed the 2017 film Aakatayi. Gopi Sundar has composed the music for the film. PG Vinda is the cinematographer.

Raj Tharun was recently seen in the Nagarjuna starrer Naa Saami Ranga, where he played a supporting role.
