About Srikanth
Directed by Tushar Hiranandani, the movie tells the inspiring true story of industrialist Srikanth Bolla, who overcame adversity to study at MIT and later founded a pioneering corporate venture upon returning to India. This biographical narrative explores the remarkable journey of Srikanth Bolla, the visionary entrepreneur behind Bollant Industries. The film chronicles his journey from overcoming visual impairment to establishing Bollant Industries in 2012. This pioneering venture creates employment opportunities for unskilled and differently-abled individuals to produce environmentally friendly products.
Born in 1992 in Seetharamapuram village, Machilipatnam, the film delves into Srikanth's early struggles, highlighting his resilience through the line, "mai bhaag nahi sakta, sirf lad sakta hun" (meaning "I can't run away, I can only fight").
Talking about Srikanth, Bhushan Kumar said, "Srikanth Bolla’s story testifies to the very proverb of acting against the odds. Having faced so many challenges since birth, yet not letting anything hamper his dreams - his journey is truly inspirational. And it's indeed a privilege to be associated with a person like him. The personality of this character is such that only an actor of a calibre like Rajkummar Rao can justify it and we are happy to have such a fine actor on board. Tushar Hiranandani’s vision to showcase this captivating story is very peculiar. As we are thrilled to make this film, we are equally excited for the audiences to witness this compelling story of Srikanth!"
