Maa Vande, an upcoming multilingual film based on the life of PM Narendra Modi, was officially announced to coincide with his birthday on September 17. Starring Unni Mukundan, the film is directed by Kranthi Kumar Ch and produced by Veer Reddy under Silver Cast Creations. The biographical drama is presently in pre-production.
While Unni Mukundan is reprising Narendra Modi, we have learnt that Raveena Tandon has been finalized to play Modi’s mother late Heeraben. Apparently, when the actress was approached to play the part, she was so moved by the principles of Heeraben. The strength, depth and the arc of the layered character resonated with Raveena. The actress reportedly green lit the character 45 minutes into the narration. Heeraben’s life has been committed to values, and she has been like a teacher to Modi. On several occasions earlier, Modi spoke highly of her. Heeraben’s early struggle – losing her mother early in her childhood – how she held the family together with calm and fortitude, and her strong principles which stood the test of time have inspired Raveena to take on the challenging character.
Heeraben was a source of inspiration and strength for Modi. The principles by which she raised him shaped his personality. Far beyond her story deprivation, is the glorious story of a mother. “Maa Vande is a film that predominantly focuses on mother-son relationship. The film majorly chronicles the sacrifices, resilience and the contributions she made to better his life. And Raveena Tandon was fascinated at this element and wanted to be part of the story,” informs a source from the unit. The actress would soon commence preparation for her role. She will undergo a complete makeover for the character. The film is being mounted on a massive scale with cutting-edge VFX technology

Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna’s public display of affection (PDA) was the cynosure of all eyes at the success meet of The Girlfriend. As he walked into the event, he greeted and congratulated the unit. But when Vijay met Rashmika, in a blink-and-miss-moment, he kissed her hand – his way of congratulating her. His gesture has a lot more to do with the film’s success, ‘we did it’ rather than a personal expression. But fans who witnessed the ‘special moment’ started sharing the photo and the video on social media. Many opined that Vijay’s gesture is an indication of what she and her success meant to him.
On her part, Rashmika thanked the filmmakers for the opportunity and the audience for making it a success. She explained what went into playing her part, Bhoomi, in the film, and expressed happiness at how audiences resonated with the character. And towards the end, when she said, ‘Last…but not the least Vijay,” the packed-crowd erupted. “I hope that everyone has a Vijay Deverakonda in their lives because that’s a blessing,” she encapsulated.
Vijay Deverakonda’s speech at any filmy do is generally filled with punch lines for fans and exciting words that’ll drive them crazy. Many expected him to repeat the dose when he walked in as the chief guest for the success meet of Rashmika Mandanna’s latest release, The Girlfriend. Instead, his speech was emotional, composed and matured showing humility, and gratitude. He stated that he is proud of Rashmika’s choice of scripts and her journey.
