‘Naa Bangaru Talli’ made it big in the TIFF 2013
The dream has come true, and its party time for the ‘Naa Bangaru Thalli’ crew. This Indian movie has won the award for the Best Feature Film at Trinity International Film Festival 2013, Detroit.
Co-produced by SunTouch Productions and Prajwala, “Naa Bangaru Talli”, a telugu feature film is directed by Rajesh Touchriver who is internationally acclaimed for his feature film on the Srilankan civil war “In The name of Buddha”. Touchriver through his production house “SunTouch Productions” has been pioneering ‘cinema for a cause’ for the last many years and has used this visual medium to highlight causes such as human trafficking, HIV/AIDS, Global Peace etc.
The story line of the movie is quite relevant in the current social scenarios. We are living in an era where gender exploitation and sexual assaults is in its peak than never before. The vitality of ‘Rajesh Touchriver’ comes into picture in this juncture as the movie deals with a hot topic, ‘Sex Trafficking’. Even though, the story is set in a middle class Indian family, still it has a global dimension, and can happen at anywhere and at anytime.
The movie garnered huge critical appreciation during its screening in the TIFF, and the performance of the actors were praised to a great extend. The screenplay of the movie which was penned by the director is absolutely realistic, and this might have helped the movie to hit the Bulls eye. The real life experiences of Sunitha Krishnan,an eminent anti-human trafficking activist who is also the co-producer and concept advisor has created its own impact. The success of Naa Bangaru Thalli in the Trinity International Film Festival has taken the Indian film world to new heights of glory and fame. The whole crew is literally excited and they are in the peak of ecstasy. In the coming months, they expect more recognitions and awards in other film festivals where Naa Bangaru Talli is going to get screened.
