Firefly isn’t just another family entertainment film, it’s a unique experience where the young filmmaker, Vamshi, who is also the debutant actor and director of the film, has brought together a powerhouse cast and crew to narrate a story that’s both heartwarming and relatable”, shares Achyuth Kumar, who has stepped into a warm and friendly father’s shoe for the film, Firefly.
“As an actor, I’ve always thrived on portraying characters that resonate with audiences. In Firefly, I take on the role of Mr. Murthy, a father whose bond with his son, Vamshi, is quite different the typical parent-child dynamic. We’re more like best friends. My on-screen wife, Mrs. Murthy, will be played by the ever-versatile Sudharani. We have done several projects before, but in Firefly you will get to see a completely different chemistry between us, that of ‘Tom and Jerry’ I would say. While Vamshi and I share a playful bond, Mrs. Murthy brings order and discipline to the table. Vamshi, despite his young age, often finds himself in the role of the mediator between us, and is the only balanced decision maker of the family.”
The production house, ‘Shri Muthu Cine Services’, led by the debutant producer Niveditha, daughter of Shivarajkumar, commits towards nurturing fresh talent and thought-provoking content that aligns perfectly with the film’s core message as well, which is set to release in theatres this Deepawali.
