Aron Karthik, a gold medalist in his academics, is undoubtedly a master in his craft due to his various ideas in different departments of cinema. In a short span of time, he has composed music for 57 films, and “Monster” is his sixth directorial venture.
How Aron Karthik thinks and adapts to cinema is something worthwhile. He has brought an English song to the teaser of “Monster” and has presented a story spanning four generations to discerning audiences. The idea of involving producer Puttaraja Reddy’s son is interesting. For 18 years, the young director donned the role of a superhero, giving characters like Spiderman, Spike, and others to combat societal evils.
Produced by Puttaraja Reddy and directed by Aaron Karthik Venkatesh, who also composed the story, screenplay, and music, the teaser and song launch of the movie “Monster” were held recently in a grand manner. The event was attended by the Kannada Film Producers Association president Umesh Bankar, Munegowda, producer Harish, actor Rakshak Bullet, Siri Music’s Siri Chikkanna, and others as chief guests.
Aaron Karthik Venkatesh mentioned that films of the action thriller genre also address the social aspect of fighting the drug mafia. There are three heroes in the film: Thriller Manju, Dharma Keerthiraj, and Pawan S. Narayan in lead roles. Santosh Reddy, the producer’s son, is seen as a superhero. Rajinikanth, Aptamitra Raj Bahadur, Yathiraj, Kuri Bond Ranga, Yashvika, Victory Vasu, Ganesh Rao, Sangeet, Dubai Rafiq, Robert, Nawaz, and others are part of the star cast. The shooting has been completed, and post-production work is in progress. The film features seven songs sung by famous singers. Efforts are underway to release the film next month.
“This is my first production film. I am not well-educated, but today I have reached the stage of producing movies with difficulty. My son Santosh Reddy is entering the film industry through this film. I am putting my son in the arms of Kala Devi and the media to encourage him. I went from earning a Rs. 1000 salary to this stage today,” stated Puttaraja Reddy.
“I liked the story told by the director. The film is well done, and my role is also good,” said actor Dharma Keerthiraj.
Artists and technicians like Thriller Manju, Santosh Reddy, Raj Bahadur, Ganesh Rao, Sangeet, and Nawaz shared their experiences of working on “Monster.”
Nearly 22 people spoke at the small teaser release, making it hectic for the media. However, the well-informed Aron Karthik was able to pool all the information related to the media.
The movie stars Chaitra, Yashika, and Rashmi Vinuta as heroines, with Suryodaya handling the cinematography.
