Rajanna, is touted to be the actor's biggest film in his 25 years of career. The makers are confident that the movie which is based on real life incidents, will do well at the box-office.
The movie has generated a lot of positive buzz ever since it hit the floors. Nagarjuna plays the title role. The actor was so impressed with the story that he came forward to produce it.
The story revolves around the real life incidents that happened in Telangana District in the State of Andhra Pradesh in the 1950's.
Popcorn India writes 'While India got the freedom from the British Raj, the people in Telangana were not free.
The reason is that Hyderabad state was still under the Nizam rule. The Nizam along with his private army harassed the poor people.
The rich landlords too conspire with the Razakars to keep the people in poverty and bondage.'
At this juncture, a valiant freedom fighter Rajanna (Nagarjuna) awakens the people with his patriotic songs. He is a balladeer and his songs give confidence to the people to rise and fight. However, Rajanna is killed.'
