Veteran filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma made his filmmaking debut with Shiva (1989). Featuring Nagarjuna in the lead titular role, the film emerged as the highest-grossing Telugu film of all time. Besides this, it is considered a groundbreaking movie in terms of technical aspects, storytelling, action choreography and has gained a cult following over the years.
As the title reads, this cult blockbuster is gearing up for a grand re-release (in 4K format) on the eve of Nagarjuna’s birthday, i.e., on August 29, 2024. Considering the film’s enduring legacy, this re-release is expected to perform well at the ticket window.
Shiva also starred Amala and Raghuvaran as the female leads and antagonists, respectively. Co-produced by Annapurna Studious, the film’s music was composed by ‘Maestro’ Ilayaraaja. Following its historic success, RGV remade the film in Hindi with the same title, with Nagarjuna reprising his role.
