What happens

Krishna is a 2008 Indian Telugu-language action comedy film directed by V. V. Vinayak and produced by B. Kasi Viswanatham, with D. V. V. Danayya presenting the film. The film stars Ravi Teja and Trisha, with music composed by Chakri and cinematography by Chota K. Naidu. Released on 11 January 2008 during the Sankranthi festival, Krishna was a blockbuster at the box office, emerging as the Sankranti winner of 2008. It collected a distributor's share of ₹24.60 crore and was the second highest-grossing Telugu film of the year and one of the highest-grossing Telugu films at the time of its release. It was also Ravi Teja's highest grossing film at that point, surpassing Vikramarkudu. The film was later remade in Kannada as Rajani (2009), in Bengali as Awara and in Bangladeshi as Prem Prem Paglami (2013). It was dubbed into Hindi as Krishna: The Power of Earth, Bhojpuri as Krishna The Great, and Tamil as Madhura Thimiru. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
