The highly anticipated collaboration between "Mass Ka Das" Vishwak Sen and director K.V. Anudeep is all set to hit theaters. Titled Funky, the film is being hailed as a "breezy family entertainer" that guarantees non-stop laughter from start to finish. Produced by Suryadevara Naga Vamsi and Sai Soujanya under the prestigious Sithara Entertainments and Fortune Four Cinemas banners, the movie arrives as a Valentine’s Day treat on February 13.
At a recent pre-release press meet, the team shared their excitement about the project, which has already generated significant buzz through its hit songs and quirky trailer.
A Musical and Comedic Comeback
Lead star Vishwak Sen expressed high confidence in the film's soundtrack, credited to composer Bheems Ceciroleo.
"While some of my recent films didn't hit the mark musically, Bheems garu has delivered a fantastic album for Funky," Vishwak noted. "The movie is so engaging that the two-hour runtime will fly by before you even realize it. It’s the perfect film to enjoy with friends and family."
A "Funky" New Character for the Lead Pair
The film marks a significant milestone for lead actress Kayadu Lohar, who steps into her first full-fledged comedy role. She praised the director's unique vision and her co-star's journey:
-
On Director Anudeep: "He has a style unlike any director I've ever worked with."
-
On Vishwak Sen: "Reaching this level in the industry without a film background is an incredible feat. He was a wonderful, cool co-star to work with."
Director K.V. Anudeep, known for his signature brand of humor, thanked Vishwak for trusting the script instantly and commended Kayadu for her dedication to learning Telugu dialogues on the fly.
A Lighthearted Look at the Film Industry
Producer Naga Vamsi clarified that while the movie is set against a film industry backdrop, it steers clear of being a serious drama.
"It’s a lighthearted, cute comedy involving a director and a producer’s daughter. Every scene is crafted to keep the audience smiling. You won't be disappointed; you'll walk out of the theater with a smile on your face," Vamsi promised.
