The ambitious English-language feature A Beautiful Breakup is making waves following its theatrical debut on February 13. Billed as a trendsetting romantic horror thriller, the film has garnered widespread acclaim for its unique narrative and technical brilliance. To commemorate the positive audience reception, the cast and crew gathered for a success meet to share their journey and future plans.
Produced by 5 Natures Movies International and presented by Mudragada Rangarao and Uggina Satyanarayana Rao, the film’s biggest highlight is the hauntingly beautiful score by Maestro Ilaiyaraaja.
A Universal Story Crossing Borders
Director Ajith Vasan Uggina reflected on the bold decision to film a story with only two characters in English.
-
Global Appeal: "Love and its inherent pain are universal. We chose English to ensure the story reached a global audience first," the director explained.
-
Performance Excellence: He lauded leads Thaksh and Matylda for their "Hollywood-level" performances, noting that they carried the entire emotional weight of the film on their shoulders.
-
The Ilaiyaraaja Legacy: Ajith expressed immense pride in being a part of Ilaiyaraaja’s cinematic history, creditng the Maestro’s music for giving the film its soul.
The Soul of the Story
Leading man Thaksh thanked the media and fans, revealing that the film’s concept even took the legendary music composer by surprise.
"When Ilaiyaraaja sir told us he had never worked on a subject like this before, we knew we had achieved success," Thaksh stated. "The story revolves around a fresh concept of souls trapped in a bottle—a narrative depth that required extraordinary music. Raja sir’s background score elevated the film to a different level."
Thaksh also announced that while Matylda was absent due to international commitments, the team is preparing for a grand musical event in Chennai to celebrate the film’s technical achievements.
Expanding to Pan-India Audiences
Encouraged by the success of the English version, the makers officially announced that A Beautiful Breakup will soon be dubbed and released in Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, Kannada, and Malayalam. This move aims to bring the "mystical horror" experience to diverse regional audiences across India.
Guest Balagam Sanjay attended the event to congratulate the team, noting that the title and caption alone had created a strong "vibe" that is clearly resonating with modern moviegoers.
