Music composer Devi Sri Prasad (DSP), widely recognized for his work in Telugu cinema, has officially stepped into the lead role for the upcoming film 'Yellamma'. The project is directed by Venu Yeldandi, who previously received acclaim for his directorial debut 'Balagam', and is presented by Dil Raju under the Sri Venkateswara Creations banner. The first glimpse of 'Yellamma' was unveiled on the auspicious occasion of Sankranthi, generating significant buzz and showcasing Devi Sri Prasad in a striking and unrecognizable avatar as 'Parshi'. The film is described as a culturally rooted folk drama with mystical elements, delving into folklore and spiritual traditions. Devi Sri Prasad will also be composing the music for 'Yellamma', adding another layer to his involvement in the project. The film's narrative is expected to weave spiritual themes with contemporary conflicts, exploring faith, identity, and the relationship between humans and nature. While previous reports indicated Nani and Nithiin were considered for the lead role, Devi Sri Prasad has now officially taken on the part, marking his full-fledged acting debut after previous cameo appearances. The film is anticipated to have a pan-Indian appeal. The exact release date and the female lead have not yet been announced.
