Buzz: Puri’s Jana Gana Mana to show President’s rule in India

One of the most straightforward and no-nonsense directors in Telugu cinema is Puri Jagannath, who has always spoken his mind, no matter what. On many occasions, the director was clear about his dream project, Jana Gana Mana, and his intense desire to see it become a reality. While he narrated the script to many actors, it was Superstar Mahesh Babu who okayed the script.

For several years, it was expected that audiences would get to see Mahesh and Puri work for the third time, for Jana Gana Mana, but the project got shelved and has now been revived with Vijay Deverakonda in the lead role. Ever since Puri announced the project all those years ago, he said that it would be a film with political undertones.

The latest reports suggest that the film would show President’s rule in India, after the collapse of all political parties in the country. The President’s rule usually means that the military gets into the picture, and given that Vijay will be seen as a military officer in the film, it makes a lot of sense. It is now going to be interesting to see what else this film will have packed within it.
