JAYAMALINI’S 'Jaganmohini, the Vitalacharya’s'1978 classic is going to be relived on the celluloid. Inspired by the classic, a film with the same title was launched at Ramanaidu Cine village, Nanakramguda in the city on Monday.Raja, dressed up as a prince, voluptuous Namita in her red outfit and Meera Chopra posed for the shutterbugs in the backdrop of a set reflecting the royal splendour.
Raja dons the role of Narasimha Raju while Namita will play the role essayed by Jayamalini. Interestingly the film’s director NK Viswanathan is planning to rope in Jayamalini and Narasimha Raju as Namita’s mother and Raja’s father respectively.
Namita appears as a girl who collects pearls. While Meera Chopra plays princess of another kingdom and Raja’s love interest. ‘‘Though the film borrows the concept, it will have a dash of latest technology and glamour,’’ said H Murali, who is producing the film under Murali Cine Arts banner in Telugu and Tamil.
Dasari Narayana Rao sounded clap board for the film. Ramanaidu switched on the camera while Tammareddy Bharadwaja directed the first shot.
Ilayaraja is set to score the film’s music. The film is scheduled to be released in December.
