Keerthy Suresh's latest movie, Uppu Kappurambu, has been released on OTT. Starring alongside Suhas, Keerthy takes on the role of a reluctant village chief navigating an unusual crisis, a bizarre shortage of burial space. The movie is being termed as a clever social satire. It is wrapped in delectable humour and rooted storytelling.
Keerthy Suresh opened up on what intrigued her to work on the film. “What drew me to Uppu Kappurambu was its unique blend of satire and heart. The genre of the film gets on to you at some point, and you have to stay conscious about it. I had finished shooting for a very intense film before starting Uppu Kappurambu, so working on this film felt like a much-needed breather," she said.
The breezy tone of the film made the experience even more special for her. Interestingly, Keerthy wrapped up the production in just 28 days. She noted, “Shooting for this film was just like being at home, completely relaxed. When the shoot wrapped up, I was actually a bit upset - I did not want it to end. That’s the magic of comedy, especially when you are working in a space where you can improvise, give lots of inputs, have meaningful discussions and conversations. Then it stops feeling like ‘work’ and starts coming straight from the heart. That’s what makes you feel light and happy.”
Sharing insights about her character, she added, “Apoorva is a refreshingly different character. She’s idealistic, determined, and a little out of her depth. It was an absolute joy to bring her character to life, especially in a world so rooted in our rural culture. The film uses humour and local flavour to spotlight something serious, and that’s what makes it hit home.”
Uppu Kappurambu is helmed by director Ani. I.V. Sasi. It is produced by Radhika Lavu, under the banner of Ellanar Films Pvt Ltd. The movie stars Suhas, Babu Mohan, Shatru and Talluri Rameshwari in key roles. It is now streaming exclusively on Prime Video in Telugu with dubs in Hindi, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam.
