"Make way for the KING. He is here to REIGN with all his STYLE, SWAG & CHARISMA," Annapurna Studios wrote, sharing the first glimpse for KING 100. Yes, that's the title of Akkineni Nagarjuna's 100th movie. As the stylish actor turned a year older today, the release date of his landmark movie was finally made official, together with a video clip that introduced us to the nature of his character in this Ra. Karthik directorial.
KING 100, produced by the Akkineni Family (since it is Nag's milestone movie, the entire family has come together to make investments in it; after all emotions are tied to the project), the film will head to theatres on December 24.
The Christmas release seemingly features Nag in a morally grey role. The rags-to-riches story is stylized by Devi Sri Prasad's snazzy score and Raja Mahadhevan's cinematography. Production Design is by Sathees Kumar N.
Mind games appear to be integral to the male protagonist's scheme of things in KING 100. We are reminded of recent movies such as Lucky Baskher, where the male lead is far from an ideal person. If Nag is indeed an anti-hero in the movie, KING 100 is getting the trend right.
