Wayanad Landslides : హృదయ విదారక దృశ్యాల..కంటతడి పెట్టిస్తున్న ఓ చిన్నారి రాత l Special Focus

Director Puri Jagannadh, who has been facing a rough patch after the underwhelming performances of Liger and Double iSmart, is now gearing up for a strong comeback. In a bold and intriguing move, he has teamed up with the versatile Vijay Sethupathi for a new project titled Beggar. The film has already started generating buzz solely because of its unique title, and if the reports are accurate, Vijay Sethupathi will be seen playing the role of a beggar — a role packed with emotional and narrative depth.

Joining the cast are acclaimed actresses Tabu and Radhika Apte, which adds even more gravitas to the project. Known for creating grounded and gritty characters, Puri Jagannadh seems to be returning to his roots, focusing on raw storytelling that often explores the struggles and rise of underdog heroes.

Aiming for a pan-India release, Puri is planning to wrap up the shoot in just 60 days, aligning with Vijay Sethupathi’s preference for fast-paced production schedules. The actor has reportedly allotted bulk dates for the film, signaling his belief in the script and its potential to be a powerful addition to his diverse filmography.

A massive slum set is currently under construction, where the majority of the film will be shot. This backdrop hints at a story that delves into the harsh realities of urban poverty, survival, and transformation.

While the title and cast have raised expectations, the biggest curiosity remains—can Puri Jagannadh recapture the spark that once made him a force in Indian cinema? With Beggar, he might just find the redemption arc he’s been searching for, and with Vijay Sethupathi leading the charge, all eyes are on this ambitious project.
