South superstar Nani's highly anticipated pan-India action thriller film Dasara released worldwide today. The film has been shot in Telugu but will be released in Hindi and Tamil as well to make it more appealing to the national audiences.

Also starring Keethy Suresh in the lead, Dasara is directed by debutant Srikanth Odhela and is touted to be one of the most crucial films of Nani’s career. The film has been set on a big budget of reportedly Rs 65 crore and is expected to take a big opening at the box-office.

If you’re planning to watch Dasara in theaters, take a look at what social media has to say about the film:

Talking about the decision of Dasara being a pan-India film, Nani said that the concept of the film has a mass appeal. “Dasara is a Telugu film that we felt will appeal to audiences across languages. Hence, we decided to release it in multiple languages. Dasara is set in a world that’ll be alien to Telugu as well as Hindi audiences. That’s what makes this film unique. A film doesn’t become pan-Indian just by being released in five languages,” the actor told Hindustan Times in an interview.

The actor further spoke about how the concept of Pan-India films evolved after the release of Prabhas and SS Rajamouli’s Baahubali: The Beginning. “When Baahubali 1 was released, it wasn’t a pan-Indian film. After audiences lapped up the first part in a big way, the hype around the second part grew manifolds and that naturally made Baahubali 2 a truly pan-Indian project. It’s the same case with the KGF series and Pushpa. Audiences make a film pan-Indian with their acceptance,” Nani told Hindustan Times.
