Directed by V.V. Vinayak, 'Chatrapathi' is an official Hindi remake of 'RRR' director SS Rajanouli's Telugu blockbuster of the same name which starred 'Baahubali' star Prabhas, Shriya Saran and Bhanupriya among others.
The Prabhas and Shriya Saran-starrer action-drama was released in 2005 and garnered positive reviews from critics as well as fans.
Besides Sreenivas Bellamkonda and Nushrratt Bharuccha, the Hindi remake of 'Chatrapathi' also stars Bhagyashree, Sharad Kelkar, Sahil Vaid, Amit Nair, Rajendra Gupta, and Shivam Patil among others.
Last month on March 30, Sreenivas Bellamkonda dropped the official teaser of 'Chatrapathi' on his official Instagram and Twitter handle.
'Chatrapathi' marks the Bollywood debut of Telugu star Sreenivas Bellamkonda, who is best known for his performances in films like 'Sita', 'Alludu Adhurs', 'Kavacham' and many more.
Produced by Pen Movies, 'Chatrapathi' tells the story of a protagonist who rose against oppression to become a saviour of immigrants that suffered massive exploitation.
The Sreenivas Bellamkonda pan-India film is set to hit the screens on May 12.
