In the realm of morning sustenance for individuals facing poverty, buns and tea reign supreme. This beloved combination is cherished by many, and the day seldom commences without it.
Turning our attention to Kannada cinema, there’s a forthcoming release titled ‘Bun Tea.’ Directed by Udaya Kumar, this film delves into the significance of education in one’s life. Udaya Kumar draws inspiration from the life of a close friend for this narrative, which notably departs from the conventional hero and heroine roles. The cast includes Umesh, Sridevi, Gundanna of Chickmagaluru, alongside several others.
In ‘Bun Tea,’ seasoned actor Umesh assumes the role of a lawyer, while this marks Sridevi’s debut in the world of film. Young talents Mourya and Tanmayi also contribute to the film’s charm.
Notably, the film’s shooting locations were meticulously chosen, with no artificial sets constructed. Instead, the camera was strategically placed in authentic settings such as slums and bustling markets to capture the essence of the story.
Producer Keshav R. Pradyothan emphasizes the film’s central theme: the detrimental impact of the commercialization of education within a flawed educational system. The background score, expertly crafted by the music director, underscores this critical message. Raja Rao masterfully handles the cinematography, and the film is set for release in theaters on the 22nd of this month.
