Promising new talent Roshan Kanakala’s ‘Bubblegum’ grabbed everyone's attention with the intriguing promotional content. The teaser and songs trending on social media. Maanasa Chowdhary is being introduced as the female lead.
This film is poised to capture the hearts of audiences with its unique storyline and captivating visuals. The film is releasing on December 29th and the team is busy with promotions. The film is directed by Ravikanth Perepu of ‘Kshanam’ and ‘Krishna & His Leela’ fame.
Today the director interacted with media about the film. He shared how Bubblegum journey began. He said "After 'Kshnam' I did Krishna and Leela. Originally it was to be released in theatres. But due to covid lock down it was released in OTT. Actors' schedules have changed due to the lock down. There are more projects to be done. In this order, I wrote the story 'Bubblegum' to do with the newcomers. I already know Roshan. I met Roshan knowing that he was being introduced as a hero. He seemed a perfect fit for this story. We started shooting in July and made the film very fast. 'Bubblegum' is a subject that connects to everyone."
He added, This is a story for beginners. After 22 years, we complete college and enter the real world. Till then our family and parents will protect us. Once we go out in search of our passion, everything feels new. What kind of career should be chosen? Is money enough? Should we do what we love? There are many confusions like this. How can we deal with unexpected love in life at a time like this? That's the point of Bubblegum.
It is predominantly a love story. After trailer everyone asked that this will be a Rockstar kind of story? Or was it like a musician film? But this is a relationship drama where the love story is the main focus.
Roshan is fantastic. What you've seen in the trailer is only ten percent. He did a great job in the movie. Both Roshan and Manasa acted very well. Also, the rest of the actors who acted in it also showed good talent.
Suma garu and Rajeev Kanakala are not involved in Bubblegum. Roshan had the freedom to choose what he wants. They strongly believed in me and Roshan.
I know Sricharan since I was in school. Since we belong to the same town, that comfort was established from the beginning. Kshanam, Krishna and Leela and now he did it for 'Bubblegum'. Habibi, Jaanu, Izzat songs got very good response. There are two more songs.
Manasa is Telugu. She acted very well. As he understands Telugu, he also understands the sub text in our writing. This made it easier. Now Telugu girls are coming as heroines. This makes the nativity a little more believable.
Maheshwari Movies, People Media Factory are wonderful production houses. Everything needed for the film has been provided without any compromise. Budgeted more than what should have been budgeted. The production and promotions were done very well.
It was truly a fan boy moment for me. I am a die hard fan of Chiranjeevi. He liked the song of Izzat very much.
Our movie has what Salaar didn't. What is missing in our film is in Salaar (Laughs). After the release of our teaser, there was a lot of buzz. Also the songs got a good response. We thought to release this buzz. I believe that everyone will like this movie. Interval and climax are highlights in the movie.
Absolutely. There was some gap between the movies. But it took some time to understand the situation in the industry. I will try to increase the speed from now on.
