The film also stars Sarath Kumar, Murali Mohan, Anandraj and Rao Gopal Rao in supporting roles. Directed by Vijay Bapineedu the film’s music is composed by Bappi Lahiri.
Gang Leader is the latest film to join the list of iconic yesteryear movies to have a re-release. Other such films on the list are Okkadu (2003), Jalsa (2008), Pokiri (2006) and Kushi (2001). These films, usually remastered to the 4K format, opened to housefuls and celebrations by the fans all over.
Chiranjeevi’s last film to have a re-release was Gharana Mogudu (1992), which ran in theaters last year around the time of his birthday in late August. However it wasn’t noticed by the audience except for a few mega fans.
Gang Leader film was an all-time blockbuster which was blended with family sentiment, romance, excellent songs and a lot of kick ass action sequences. Over the last three decades, the film has had a cult following for reviving the formula of commercial films and Chiranjeevi’s perception as an action hero.
With the latest success of Waltair Veerayya, the Mega fans are expected to take this re-release seriously and definitely they will plan massive fan shows and celebrations all over.
