Avane Srimannarayana has a universal appeal: Rakshit Shetty

“It has a universal appeal that can provide wholesome entertainment for audiences across demographics,” says Rakshit.

After Kannada actor Yash hit the jackpot by releasing his film KJF in multiple languages including Hindi, here is yet another Kannada actor/filmmaker Rakshit Shetty who is making a similar attempt with his movie Avane Srimannarayana, a fantasy adventure comedy movie. The film is being released in Tamil, Kannada, Telugu, Malayalam and Hindi.

“It has a universal appeal that can provide wholesome entertainment for audiences across demographics,” says Rakshit.

He adds, “The story packs enough chills, thrills and laughs for anyone to have a good time. Set in the fictional town of ‘Amaravathi’ (a town with its own quirky sensibilities and a unique geography), it can be a town set almost anywhere in India, making Narayana an Indian story rather than a story of a particular state.

It is a period movie based on the journey for the hunt of a treasure filled with mystery. The movie will be presented as a new genre by name - ‘southern odd fiction’. We’ve always had gunslinger stories, cop stories, little town stories, ASN is a unique blend of all of these with an added flavor of its own.”

Directed by Sachin, the film will see Rakshit as a cop and giving him company is Shanvi Srivatsava.
