The first single titled Samara Shankham from YSR biopic ‘Yatra’ has been released to mark the death anniversary of Y S Rajasekhara Reddy, which is receiving positive response by the movie lovers. Yatra- a biopic, based on the life of two-time Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Rajasekhar Reddy, in which Malayalam superstar Mammootty is playing the lead role. As expected, the Mammootty has impeccably showcased his Midas touch in the single Samara Shankham . Yatra is being directed by Anando Brahma fame Mahi V Raghav. Mango Music, which has acquired the music rights of Yatra tweeted, “Time to blow the conch. Presenting the first single #SamaraShankam from #Yatra Audio on @MangoMusicLabel #Mammootty @KaalaBhairava7 @mammukka @MahiVRaghav @70mmEntertains #YSRForever #YatraJourneyBegins #YSRVardhanthi.”
The director Mahi V Raghav appreciated the men behind creating the music album for Yatra and said, “Yatra music album will be called ‘A Sirivennela Sreetharama Sastry lyrical.’ Hope K (music director Krishna Kumar) won’t mind.” Finally Mahi V Raghav has become successful to impress the audience. The way he presented Mammooty in this song, is appreciable. In each and every move, Mammootty resembled the former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y S Rajasekhara Reddy who died in a helicopter accident on 2nd September 2009. The song video is going viral on social media. The viewers who have watched Samara Shankham song, are lauding Mammootty for his energy level.
Apart from Mammootty, Yatra has other stars like Rao Ramesh, Vinod Kumar Anasuya Bahardwaj, Posani Krishna Murali, and Sachin Khedekar in supporting roles.
Yatra which is being bankrolled jointly by Vijay Chilla and Shashi Devi under the banner of 70MM Entertainments, is expected to hit the screens next year in the month of January. An official release date will be announced by the makers very soon. The technical crew of the film includes K (Krishna Kumar) for composing the music, A Sreekar Prasad for editing and Sathyan Sooryan for camera. To be released in Telugu and Tamil, Mammootty will be dubbing with his own voice in both the versions of Yatra to lend credibility for his role.
