Telugu director Anand Ranga spoke about his web series ‘Vyavastha’ starring Karthik Ratnam, Sampath Raj, Hebah Patel, Kamna Jetmalani, Sukurtha Wagle, Shivani, Sujith Kumar Reddy, Raja Ashok and Gururaj in prominent roles.
The 8-episode courtroom drama is a story of two lawyers, one is a power-hungry lawyer, Chakraborty and the other is an underdog, Vamsi. Vamsi is not interested in practicing law because of his stammering problem but when his ex-love interest is accused of murder, he decides to take up the case. In the courtroom they argue to determine whether Yamini (played by Hebbah Patel) murdered her husband.
Talking about the web series, director Anand said: “The story takes you through the life of a young law graduate who takes up a case against a mighty lawyer, and faces a lot of challenges and setbacks in the process.”

Film CommentaryThe film's toned down approach to caste realities, with the apparent intention of subverting the anti-caste spirit, is as hypocritical as calling the murders of inter-caste couples an "issue between families".Charan TejaImage: Amazon Prime Video/FacebookWhen an original work of art is easily available and accessible, few people would choose a flawed imitation. It is therefore common sense that anyone who is aware of social realities would choose Asuran over the Telugu remake, Narappa. The Vetri Maaran directorial starring Dhanush in Tamil was remade by Sreekanth Addala as Narappa in Telugu, with Daggubati Venkatesh in the titular role. Keeping aside the criticism that Asuran received with regard to its portrayal of violence against Dalits and the retaliation (since the contours of anti-caste cinema are still being debated), it can be said that Asuran was largely hailed for showcasing the spirit of anti-caste struggles, and the lives of Dalits...

ReviewThe politics of the remake, directed by Srikanth Addala, is intentionally muddled by the references to rich and poor. Sowmya RajendranNarappa is the Telugu remake of Vetri Maaran's 2019 film Asuran, one of Dhanush's biggest hits and a film that led to a lot of debate and conversation around land rights, caste and oppression. While the film was hailed for presenting the ugly reality of caste, it was also criticised for glorifying violence on screen and elaborately showing the humiliation of already marginalised groups. The remake, directed by Srikanth Addala, comes two years later and one is left asking why it had to be made at all. It's not that Narappa is a bad film. Every frame is almost the same as Asuran, making us wonder why the same film had to be made again when the original was immensely popular across the southern states. More troublingly, the director has...
