Ravi Teja`s first look from Tiger Nageswara Rao
Ravi Teja's first look from the Pan-India project Tiger Nageswara Rao was launched in multiple languages today. Directed by Vamsee and produced by Abhishek Agarwal of Abhishek Agarwal Arts, the promotions of the movie kick-started in a first-of-its-kind manner with the makers launching the fierce and majestic first-look poster and intriguing concept video on the iconic Havelock Bridge (Godavari) in Rajahmundry. They hired a train for the grand first-look launch event.
Ravi Teja looks like a ferocious tiger in the first-look poster that sees him in a rugged get-up with a thick beard. It's scary to stare into his eyes, even though it's just a poster. He can be seen behind bars. The concept poster is meant to introduce the world of Tiger Nageswara Rao. It is articulated strikingly with voiceovers of five different superstars in five different languages. While Venkatesh gave the voiceover for the Telugu version, John Abraham, Shiva Rajkumar, Karthi, and Dulquer Salmaan introduced the world of Tiger Nageswara Rao in Hindi, Kannada, Tamil, and Malayalam languages, respectively.
As mentioned in the beginning of the video, the story is inspired by real-life rumours. "It was the '70s. A small village in the coastal region of the Bay of Bengal... Even the darkness that scares the world is afraid of the people there... The train that makes huge noise trembles when it reaches the outskirts of the area... The feet of people shudder when they see the landmark of the town... Stuartpuram is the crime capital of South India... That area has another name... Tiger Zone⦠The Zone of Tiger Nageswara Rao..." explains the voiceover.
The dialogue - "You might have seen a tiger hunting a deer? Have you ever seen a tiger hunting a tiger?" - uttered by Ravi Teja, describes the ruthless nature of the character. The voiceovers of the superstars make the portrayal more interesting.
