What happens

Narasimhudu is a 2005 Indian Telugu-language action film directed by B. Gopal. The film features N. T. Rama Rao Jr. in the titular role, alongside Ameesha Patel, and Sameera Reddy (in her Telugu debut). The supporting cast includes prominent actors such as Puneet Issar, Kalabhavan Mani, Rahul Dev, and Ashish Vidyarthi. The film is a remake of the 2004 Kannada film Durgi and holds the distinction of being the first and only remake N. T. Rama Rao Jr. has starred in during his career. Produced by Chengala Venkat Rao with a significant budget of approximately ₹20 crore, Narasimhudu was released amidst considerable hype. However, upon its theatrical release, the film was met with negative reviews from critics and the audience, who largely criticised its predictable plot, outdated direction, and excessive action. Its poor critical reception translated into a dismal commercial performance, leading the film to become a box-office bomb. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
