RANI RANI RANI: Freestyle Digital Sets Late May Release For Female-Driven Sci-Fi
Writer/director Rajaram Rajendran’s new sci-fi drama, Rani Rani Rani, is poised to release on VOD and DVD on May 28 from Freestyle Digital Media. The film stars Tannishtha Chatterjee, Asif Basra, Danny Sura, Alexx O’Nell, and Abid Anwar, and is produced by Rahendran.
Sidestepping mystical and spiritual influences while reveling in a science fiction world, RANI RANI RANI follows Rani, the caretaker at an abandoned factory, in an almost-abandoned Indian village. It’s just an ordinary day for Rani — trapped in a struggle for survival between a feckless husband on one hand, and her husband’s brother and ruthless sister-in-law on the other. But when Rani happens upon a group of opportunists seeking to prove the efficacy of their mysteriously-acquired mechanical device to a potential buyer, her fortunes seem set to change. All these opportunists are looking for is a volunteer, a test subject, and for a small sum of cash Rani is lured into their machine. While Rani emerges seemingly unscathed, a violent turn of events makes her realize that changing the trajectory of her life might just be a matter of a second chance, or a third, or maybe just a little more time.
“RANI RANI RANI is the result of a brilliant cast and a talented crew putting their faith into a genre that’s not the most popular in South Asia, says Rajendran. “We’re proud of how it turned out, having overcome the restrictions and limitations of an indie film. We hope the viewers truly enjoy this time-travel thriller.”
Freestyle Digital negotiated the deal to acquire the movie directly with Ryan Bury of MPX-Motion Picture Exchange.
