What happens

Bejawada or Bezawada is a 2011 Indian Telugu-language action crime film based on the Vijayawada Gang Warfare, directed by Vivek Krishna and produced by Ram Gopal Varma and Renny Johnson. The film stars Naga Chaitanya and Amala Paul. The film was met with a disappointing box office reception, but positively at television and OTT as it accurately depicted the historical gang war in Vijayawada. Later it was dubbed in Hindi as Hero: The Action Man and also in Tamil as Vikram Dhadha. It marked Amala Paul’s Telugu debut. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
