The film is a biopic on late Uyyalawada Narasimha Reddy, who is believed to be one of the first freedom fighters. He rebelled against the British rule 10 years before than the First War of Independence of 1857. Tamannaah told IANS that for her it's a matter of "national pride" to feature in this film.
