Srikanth Odela is an Indian film director who mainly works in the Tollywood film industry. Srikanth makes his directing debut with Nani's action-thriller Dasara, which was produced by Sudhakar Cherukuri under the Sri Lakshmi Venkateswara Cinemas label. For the movie "
Nannaku Prematho," which premiered on January 12, 2016, Srikanth Odela served as Sukumar's assistant director. The film stars
N.T. Rama Rao Jr. and
Rakul Preet Singh. Srikanth serves as the assistant director for the first time in this film.
Srikanth mainly learned about the art of filmmaking from Sukumar, and he later served in the same position for Sukumar's
Rangasthalam.
Ram Charan and
Samantha gave outstanding performances in the highly successful film Rangasthalam. He prepared a tale for "
Natural Star Nani" in a different style after learning proper direction from Sukumar, and he approached Nani and briefed him about the plot. Nani really liked the script because it dealt with a very real, rural issue; as a result, Nani will do best in that line of work.
The raw, rural, and vicious teaser for Srikanth Odela's
Dasara movie was unveiled on January 30, 2023. The film is scheduled for release on
March 30. If it is successful, the director will become well-known in the Indian film business. Srikanth was cautious when selecting the cast and crew for the movie because he was confident that if unsuitable characters were chosen, the project would crash. He adores the on-screen couple Keerthy Suresh and Nani in the 2017 film "Nenu Local."
He picked Santhosh Narayanan to compose the music and background score for the movie. In Srikanth's first movie, Samuthirakani, Dheekshith Shetty, and Shine Tom Chacko also starred. The film had a budget of
70 crores, and if it generated more than that, Srikanth would be welcomed to the industry with open arms and would undoubtedly be able to grow as a filmmaker.
