Sontha Ooru gets ready for release

Raja is playing the lead in 'Sontha Ooru' directed by P Sunil Kumar Reddy and produced by Kishori Basireddy and Ravindrababu under the banner of Sravya Films.

Producers say, 'We are making efforts to release the film by the end of February.' Raja says, 'I am eagerly awaiting the release of this film. It is not just because this is my first release this year, but I played a deglamourized character as a physically challenged person. How the audiences would receive me is the basic question. Everyone will have some kind of attachment with their native place. It is a love story related to a village. Director brought out the film at international standards. The heroine of the film Teertha was trained in Pune Film Institute. The entire film was brought out with a meaningful story.' Director says, 'Though we settle in the city, our roots would be somewhere in a village. We selected Raja for the hero's role as we noticed a spark in his eyes.'
