Savitri biopic Mahanati, which featured Keerthy Suresh in the lead role, has been selected to be screened at Shanghai International Film Festival, its makers revealed on Saturday. Director Nag Ashwin took to Twitter and wrote: \u201cPrivileged to take our Savitri garu to China. Quite confident that she will steal their hearts as well.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mahanati, which also \nstars Samantha Akkineni, Vijay Deverakonda, Dulquer Salmaan, Rajendra \nPrasad and Shalini Pandey among others in key roles, had a simultaneous \nrelease in Tamil as well. Dulquer played Gemini Ganesan in the film, \nwhich was dubbed and released in Tamil as Nadigayar Thilagam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The\n film has been titled Mahanati The Great Actress for its Chinese \nrelease. Released amid great hype last year, Mahanati went on to be a \nbox-office success. Being a biopic, a genre so rare in Tollywood, it\u2019s \nan accomplishment that Mahanati stirred up a box-office storm. It made \nnearly Rs. 50 crore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pleased by the response for the film and her\n performance, Keerthy Suresh had said in a post release chat that the \nsuccess has made her more responsible. \u201cI\u2019m thrilled with the overall \nresponse. However, I also feel I have an added responsibility to my \nfuture projects. The fact that this a woman-centric film and it has been\n doing so well at the box-office has made me really proud.\u201d \n\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
