Filmmaker Anil Ravipudi has revealed the title of his upcoming film featuring Venkatesh and Nandamuri Kalyan Ram. The multistarrer has been named ‘January 12 Vidudala’, with the announcement arriving through a humorous promotional video.
The title reveal plays on nostalgia and comedy, with the video referencing veteran filmmaker EVV Satyanarayana and a well-known comedy sequence from ‘Appula Appa Rao’. Ravipudi then turns the joke into the actual title announcement.
In the video, Venkatesh and Kalyan Ram ask Ravipudi about the name of their film. When he replies with “January 12 Vidudala”, the actors initially interpret it as the movie’s release date. They later realise that the phrase itself is the title.
The playful announcement reflects Ravipudi’s tendency to use simple and memorable phrases that immediately establish the comic flavour of his films. The film reportedly revolves around the relationship between the two protagonists, who are brothers-in-law. Its tagline, “Bava Bammardi Soujanyamtho”, further highlights their equation.
Keerthy Suresh and Krithi Shetty are paired with the two male leads. The project is produced by Sahu Garapati under the Shine Screens banner and presented by Suresh Productions, Smt. Archana and Zee Studios.
