Dongala Muta DTS®

If you are curious to see how RGV transforms his vision or let's say a random idea which seems to have struck his mind, then his latest film is a good example. Dongala Muta has a galaxy of stars including Ravi Teja, Charmee, Prakash Raj, Brahmanandam, Lakshmi Manchu, Subbaraju, Sunil, Supreet and Brahmaji. The film made quite a lot of pre-release buzz thanks to its ultra-low budget of Rs 6.5 lakhs and also because the shooting was completed in 4.5 days. Canon 5D camera which was used to shoot the film was touted to be the next big thing which would revolutionize filmmaking. The film narrates the story of a couple who find themselves in a precarious situation and how they manage to come out of it.

Three Canon 5D cameras were used and the film was shot by technicians from FX School. On the contrary, RGV has embarked on a similar journey where the main intention was to make a low cost film within a short duration. Yes, he did achieve what he had promised and thereby showing the various possibilities with which the production cost can be brought down.

Dongala Mutha is a suspense drama with limited characters playing hide and seek in a small area. In this context, the drama unfolds at a good pace.
