Tollywood movie “Baby” has taken the box office by storm, surpassing all expectations despite its humble beginnings. With a staggering gross of over Rs. 43 crores, the film continues to thrive even under adverse weather conditions, bringing immense joy to its director, Sai Rajesh.
What sets “Baby” apart is the gripping fact that it is inspired by a true incident that occurred in Salem, Tamil Nadu. Sai Rajesh, the talented writer and director behind the movie, uncovered the tragic tale of a young engineering student who befriended a classmate and an auto driver, ultimately falling in love with both. However, when the two young men discovered the truth, their fury led to the girl’s brutal murder.
Deeply moved by this heart-wrenching incident and the visuals associated with it, Sai Rajesh decided to craft a compelling narrative focusing on the girl’s perspective rather than merely rehashing the gruesome crime. This unique approach allowed him to craft a thought-provoking film.
The film’s tremendous success can be attributed to its contemporary and authentic storyline, effectively resonating with the youth. Mass Movie Makers played a significant role in financing the project, while the stellar performances by Anand Deverakonda, Vaishnavi Chaitanya, and Viraj Ashwin in the lead roles added another layer of brilliance to the film.
