Journalist Maruthi's Story Turns Into Sai Dharam Tej’s Next

Cinema often thrives on borrowed stories, but it is rare when a journalist’s pen becomes the seed for a film. That rare moment has arrived for Tollywood journalist Murti, whose story has been picked up for a big-screen adaptation. The project has already started making waves for its unusual beginning.

People’s Media Factory, one of the most active production houses in Telugu cinema, is producing the film. Known for mounting large projects, the banner is giving Murti’s idea a big stage. Vamsi Krishna takes charge as the director, while Sai Dharam Tej has been locked as the lead. For Tej, this film could mark a turning point, offering him space to explore a different kind of role.

The move of a journalist stepping into the cinema as a storyteller is unusual. Most reporters remain chroniclers of events, not creators of fiction. Murti breaking that mold has sparked curiosity within the industry. Insiders suggest that the film will balance real-world grit with mass appeal, something that could strike a chord with a wide audience.

Plot details are being kept under wraps, but the buzz is undeniable. A journalist’s voice often carries an edge of truth, and that could give this project a unique tone compared to routine entertainers. With People’s Media backing, Vamsi Krishna’s direction, and Sai Dharam Tej’s presence, the film is shaping into one of the more intriguing projects to watch out for.
