With sports based films becoming a fad in K’town, yet another filmmaker Prithivi Adithya is doing a sports drama bilingual in Tamil and Telugu delving into the world of athletics for which he has roped in Aadhi Pinisetty. The film is about the challenges that the protagonist faces in accomplishing his dreams.
Speaking to DC, an excited Aadhi says, “I play a runner and the story is about his aspirations and struggles to make it at international level. It touches upon power politics in sports. It is based on a real life runner and the things that happened to him. There’s an emotional side to it.”
On his preparations he said, “I sport two different looks. One is during the flashback, when I am the actual runner, for which I am shedding 9 kilos. There’s yet another in the post-athletics period, which has a different look.” The actor discloses that he is soon meeting an athletic champion to get hands-on training.
