Journey Audio Release

The audio of ‘Journey’ starring Sharwanand, Anjali, Jai and Ananya was launched on Thursday, the 18th November, 2011. This is the first production venture of famous director A R Murugadoss in Tamil and Suresh Kondeti of SK Pictures banner dubbed the film in Telugu. The audio launching event was held in Hyderabad in a grand manner. Murugadoss’s little son A R Aditya released the audio and presented the first CD to Daggubati Raana. Other young heroes who were present in the audio function were Allari Naresh, Nani, Sharwanand and Navdeep. Ambica Krishna, Deva Katta, director Saravanan, Suresh Kondeti, AR Murugadoss, lyricist Sahiti, heroine, Anjali, Hema, singers Krishna Chaitanya and Geeta Madhuri also attended the function.

Addressing the gathering AR Murugadoss said, “For the first time I turned producer and produced this film in Tamil. The film became super hit and collected four times more than what I invested in it. The reason for its success is the director Saravanan. Satya’s music was a hit in Tamil. After learning that Suresh Kondeti is the right man for dubbed films I offered this film to him. This is a romantic film with new idea and new story that can be watched by all. Saravanan was my assistant. He is a good human being. While I chose him for this film, the rest of the cast and crew were selected by him. My main aim is to give a good message to the society. The audience will understand what it is only when they watch the film. I missed the chance of doing ‘Ghajini’ with Suresh. However I wanted to give this film only to him. Suresh has good awareness in publicity than me. Hats off to him for his good taste in films. I’m planning to start ‘Seventh Sense’ in Hindi soon. I also wanted to do films with Mahesh Babu and Ram Charan Tej. I like to do more of action and romantic films. My favourite directors are Rajamouli and Maniratnam.”

Suresh Kondeti said, “For the past 15 years I’ve been a journalist. Chiranjeevi and Venkatesh always used to say that I would become a producer one day and that has come true. After ‘Premisthe’ I took some gap and did ‘Shopping Mall’. And now I’m doing Murugadoss ‘Journey’. I am happy to be a small producer though I’m not a big producer. I got this opportunity to acquire the dubbing rights of this film only due to Anjali. So when I immediately approached Murugadoss for getting the Telugu rights he gave his nod. ‘Journey’ is definitely a better movie than ‘Premisthe’. Satya’s music and Sahiti’s dialogues are superb. No one will realize that it is a dubbed film. I wanted to deliver more good films in the near future.”

Director Saravanan said, “Since I liked this story I directed this film. I never struggled to cast the artists because all of them are well known to me. I know Sharwanand right from ‘Ganesh’ film and was in touch with him from then onwards. I hope this film will earn me a good recognition as a debut director.”

Anjali said, “I entered the film industry through ‘Shopping Mall’. The success of that film has earned me the offer in ‘Journey’. I’m very happy to say that I dubbed for my character both in Tamil and Telugu.”
