Makers of Leader announce re-release of Rana Daggubati starrer
The film Leader starring Rana Daggubati (debutant) in the lead role features the story of Arjun Prasad, the son of the Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister. As the latter is assassinated, his dying wish becomes to let his son succeed as the CM.
Soon after he becomes the CM, he learns about the various corrupt practices occurring within the state. This leads to Arjun venturing out to fight against the corruption by cleansing the political system he too is a part of. The rest of the film deals with the protagonist's actions and how he fulfills them.
Besides Daggubati, the film also features an ensemble cast of actors like Richa Gangopadhyay, Priya Anand, Suhasini Maniratnam, Suman, Subbaraju, Kota Srinivasa Rao, Tanikella Bharani, and many more in key supporting roles. The movie was also remade in Hindi in 2014 with the title Youngistaan starring Jackky Bhagnani and Neha Sharma in the lead roles.
Rana Daggubati’s next
Rana Daggubati was last seen in 2022 with the Tamil-Telugu bilingual film 1945 starring alongside Regina Cassandra, Sathyaraj, and Nassar. The war drama initially began production in 2016 but owing to differences between the actor and the film’s director, it finally ended up releasing six years later.
Moreover, the Baahubali actor is now all set to feature in the film Vettaiyan alongside Superstar Rajinikanth. The movie directed by TJ Gnanavel is said to be a thriller with an ensemble cast of actors like Amitabh Bachchan, Fahadh Faasil, and many more joining them. The upcoming flick is slated to release in theaters in October.
