Parugu (Telugu:పరుగు, English translation: Run) is a Telugu film that released on May 1, 2008 and is directed by Bhaskar. Allu Arjun, Sheela and Poonam Bajwa play the lead roles. Dil Raju, a big-time producer, produces the film whilst Mani Sharma composes the music. The movie premiered in Prasads IMAX on April 30th at 10:15PM.[1]

Development

The film's title has been in major headlines prior to the film's release. During the film's production, the film has been referred to as Premikudu, Romeo, Enta Ghaatu Premayo, Araku and Varadhi, before being titled as Parugu.[2]


Plot

Neelakanta (Prakash Raj) is a powerful man in his village who doesn’t believe in love marriages. He has two daughters. His elder daughter Subbalakshmi (Poonam Bajwa) elopes with a guy called Babu from a lower class on the night of her arranged marriage. Neelakanta men kidnap all the friends of Babu. Krishna (Allu Arjun) – a happy go lucky guy from Hyderabad – is one among them. Krishna likes a girl called Meena (Sheila) who happens to be the younger daughter of Neelakanta. The rest of the story is all about whether Krishna elopes with Meena or convinces Neelakanta to marry her.

Inspiration

This film seems inspired from Chiranjeevi’s family drama that ensued when his daughter srija eloped with her boy friend. This film tries to make Chiranjeevi’s family and his deeds positive and totally focuses on the agony he and his family faced by the society during the entire elopement drama which took place in October 2007[3]. Allu Arjun’s presence in the movie supports the fact that his entire family was against the elopement drama of Srija, but has been depicted in a positive way. There is also speculation that this film’s release is prior to Chiranjeevi’s entry into politics and tries to justify his deeds in the case of his daughter’s elopement.[4]
