Bringing to screens a tale of culture, family and redemption is Zee Anmol Cinema as they are gearing up to present Swajan, the Hindi dubbed version of Telugu film Balagam, on Friday, October 13, at 7 pm. The directorial debut by actor Velu Yeldandi, the film stars Priyadarshi Pulikonda and Kavya Kalyanram as the lead characters. Also featuring Sudhakar Reddy, Kota Jayaram, Mime Madhu and Muralidhar Goud in pivotal roles, this gripping drama delves into the complexities of a family caught in the throes of subtle ego which triggers anger and initiates rivalry.
The film showcases how close relationships get caught in bitterness and ignorance towards each other for years. What will happen when these family members, who were cut off with each other, come face to face and deal with the sudden demise of their patriarch? A touching reminder of the importance of ancestral respect not just in words but in deeds, the film is being premiered at a time of much importance, highlighting the significance of Pitru Paksha, observed during this month, a time when homage is paid to one's ancestors and seek their blessings.
On the premiere of the film, director Venu Yeldandi said, "Swajan holds a deep connection for me because after years of working toward it, this film began my directorial journey. It's a story that resonates with the heart and soul of every family. Through the lens of this film, I aimed to capture the bonds that tie families together, and the relevance culture holds even today. Swajan is a tribute to the unspoken emotions that often reside within families, and I hope it inspires viewers to cherish their loved ones a little more"
Actor Priyadarshi Pulikonda said, "Saayilu is a character very close to my heart, and Swajan was a remarkable journey of self-discovery for me as an actor. His struggles, ambitions, and the complex dynamics within his family made this role challenging, but also a very eye-opening one. I believe the film's message about the importance of family and tradition will resonate with audiences across generations"
Kavya Kalyanram added, "My character, Sandhya, is not just a heroine, she's a symbol of the indomitable spirit that holds families together. My character taught me that sometimes, it takes courage to confront our own past and the secrets. Swajan beautifully portrays the transformative nature of forgiveness. For me, family is the most important and this film, it has only made it stronger.”
The movie is produced by veteran Dil Raju who too opened up about it saying, "Swajan is more than just a film; it's a heartfelt journey that mirrors the complexities of human relationships. We embarked on this journey with the aim of telling a story that would touch hearts and souls. It's been a pleasure working with Director Venu Yeldandi and the talented cast to bring this story to life. We hope Swajan will leave a lasting impact, reminding us all to cherish our families"
Swajan is set in a village in Telangana and revolves around the after-effects on a family and its relations, both with the village folks and among themselves, after the jovial patriarch of the family suddenly passes away. The family's pinda ritual, attended by the whole village, shows that the old man's soul is unsatisfied with something when the crows refrain from eating the offerings. Will the family sort out their differences, figure out and free the departed soul?
Swajan will also air on Zee Cinema and Zee Cinema HD on Monday, Nov 20 at 3 pm.
