Anushka: Princess in Arundhati
Arundhati, a heroine-oriented movie set in the 1920s and the 21st century, stars pretty and curvaceous Anshuka. Directed by Kodi Rama Krishna and produced by Shyam Prasad Reddy, the movie has given an entirely new look to Anushka.
For all who thought that the era of the sari-clad seductress was forgotten history, there's new hope – Anushka is redefining sensuality with her costumes of heavy silk saris, long plaits decorated with flowers, bangles upto her elbows and the whole look rounded off with the big red bindi on her forehead. She plays the role of a princess in Arundhati, the movie's name presumably taken from one of the characters' names.
Like Shyam Prasad Reddy's previous fantasies (enhanced by graphics) Ammoru and Anji, the special effects and graphics in Arundhati are of international standards. The film will be released on January 9. The film is rumoured to have an outlay of Rs. 15 crores and over three-quarters of the budget has already been spent.
