Grand plans for audio launch of 'Gauthamiputra Satakarni'

The makers of Nandamuri Balakrishna-starrer upcoming Telugu period drama "Gauthamiputra Satakarni" are ensuring they make their audio launch here on Monday an event to remember for a long time.

"It's going to be a very lavish event. For the first time in Telugu cinema, digital invitations were designed and sent to guests. It's something that hasn't been done so far and even though it's a costly affair, the makers didn't mind," a source from the film's unit told IANS.

Directed by Krish, "Gauthamiputra Satakarni" is Balakrishna's hundredth film.

"At the audio launch, 100 ft LED screen is being installed to telecast the event. No film function in Telugu industry has attempted anything on this scale before," the source said.

The film, which is about the unsung ruler from the Satavahana dynasty, also stars Shriya Saran, Hema Malini and Kabir Bedi.
