Chennai: With just a day to go for director Krish Jagarlamudi’s eagerly-awaited action thriller ‘Ghaati’, featuring actors Anushka Shetty and Vikram Prabhu in the lead, to hit screens, the makers of the film on Thursday released one more trailer, which they chose to call the ‘Release Glimpse’.
Taking to its Instagram, UV Creations, the production house that has produced the film, shared the link to the release glimpse and wrote, “The QUEEN at her FIERCEST BEST on the Big Screens tomorrow. #GhaatiReleaseGlimpse OUT NOW VICTIM. CRIMINAL. LEGEND. Witness her journey.”

The release glimpse video packs a series of intense and gripping visuals, which seem to reinforce the idea suggested in the tagline of the film: victim, criminal, legend. The release glimpse shows Anushka Shetty uttering just one dialogue. Anushka, who plays the role of Sheelavathi in Ghaati, says, “If you say ‘They won’t back down and these people won’t back down’, I too won’t back down.”
The film has triggered huge expectations among fans and film buffs, and a trailer released by the unit recently has added to the excitement.
The trailer of the film that was released a few days ago shows Vikram Prabhu and Anushka Shetty to be a couple in love, residing in the ghats. The poor local populace, commonly referred to as ghaatis, is used by smugglers to smuggle ganja from the treacherous terrain to places across the border. It is evident that the smugglers look down on the ghaatis and address them in a condescending tone. The ghaatis are told to confine themselves to bearing the goods across the borders, as doing business wouldn’t suit them. The trailer gives the impression that while Vikram Prabhu works in a dispensary or a hospital of some sort, Anushka initially works as a bus conductor. However, the two seem to get married in the film and then look to deliver justice to the poor ghattis who are handed a raw deal by the smugglers.
The film was supposed to hit screens July 11 this year. However, now, it is scheduled to hit screens September 5.
Presented by UV Creations and produced by Rajeev Reddy and Sai Babu Jagarlamudi, ‘Ghaati’ is the second collaboration between Anushka Shetty and director Krish, following the success of their blockbuster film ‘Vedam’.
Interestingly, the film will be Anushka’s fourth film with UV Creations.
The makers have already disclosed that Tamil actor Vikram Prabhu plays the character of Desi Raju in the film.
In an exclusive interview with IANS, Vikram Prabhu had disclosed that he had lost eight kilos for his role in the film.
Sources claim cinematographer Manojh Reddy Katasani has brought to life the world of ‘Ghaati’ with his striking visuals, while Nagavelli Vidya Sagar’s music amplifies its intense mood.
Art direction for the film is by National Award winner Thota Tharani, and editing is by Chanakya Reddy Toorupu and Venkat N Swamy. Sai Madhav Burra has penned sharp dialogues for the film, which promises to engage audiences with its powerful storytelling.
