The much-awaited movie
"Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum", starring young Telugu actor Rana
Daggubati, is expected to open in 1,000 screens worldwide Friday.
KVJ is likely to outnumber Aamir Khan's
Bollywood film "Talaash" in terms of screens in south India, according
to Telugu film industry sources. Both the movies are scheduled for
release the same day.
"Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum" will be
released in more theatres than "Talaash" in Andhra Pradesh and in equal
number of screens in Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, said the sources.
The action-adventure drama is directed by Radhakrishna Jagarlamudi, popularly known as Krish.
In the movie, Rana is paired opposite actress Nayanathara, who plays a journalist.
Rana is said to have done some daredevil scenes without using a body double.
Owing to strong buzz, the pre-bookings
for "Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum" and "Talaash" have opened well. Both
Aamir and Rana are known for innovative and extensive promotions of
their movies.
