Directed by Venu Udugula, Viraataparvam is set in the rural Telangana of the 1990s and revolves around a Maoist theme. The movie stars Rana Daggubati, Sai Pallavi, Priyamani, Nivetha Pethuraj, Nandita Das, and Naveen Chandra in other important roles.
Dani Salo and Divakar Mani handled the cinematography for Viraataparvam. Suresh Bobbili scored the music while Sudhakar Cherukuri of SLV Cinemas is the producer of the project.
Interestingly, Viraataparvam is Sai Pallavi’s second film to have been postponed due to the second wave of Covid-19 cases. Her film, Love Story that also stars Naga Chaitanya also postponed its release due to the same reason. Other Telugu films such as Acharya and Pushpa are likely to follow suit.
