There are many interesting anecdotes related to film.One of them is about how Panne came into being and how exactly it is different.

Beaming with pride, Alladi opens up on how Panne is different from similar movies based on the freedom sturggle and independence.He said: "Honestly speaking, this film doesnt discuss anything before August 14, 1947.In other words, it doesnt talk about the efforts of the great men or women who fought for our Independence.

I wrote the story only from the point of view of how independence is taken into consideration and not how it has served us.How is it seen? Is it social or individual freedom?"Diving deeper into the subject of his film, Alladi said: "Yes, there were numerous films based on the independence struggle.Unlike these movies, Panne stand out because it makes a distinction between social and individual freedom, and women arent mere cosmetic place holders in it."Filmed in Hyderabad and Warangal, Panne stars Kalpana Tiwari, Pankaj Munshi, Anand Rangarajan, Vijaya Posala, Silpa Das, Prasad Kamalanabha and Sam Mukherjeer in pivotal roles.It is set to be released this August in Hindi, Bengali, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam.
