NAMO ADI SHANKARA is a full length feature film originally made in Telugu by Producers Nara Jayasridevi and Vijay Mallampati from Global Peace Creators. The film directed by South Indian Veteran Writer/Director J K Baravi is now releasing in its Hindi dubbed version in the USA on October 17, 2014. It's well known cast includes Nagarjuna as Chandala, Kaushik Babu as Adi Shankara, Chiranjeevi as Lord Shiva, Kaamna Jethmalani and introducing Sriramchandra from Indian Idol fame. The film was produced in two years and was exclusively shot on original locations in Kaladi, the birth place of Adi Shankara.
It depicts the life history of Jagadguru Aadishankara, filmed in the Kaladi village of his childhood. It shows how he convinces his mother to allow him to take Sainthood at such an early age in his life. His travel to the Himalayas, learning Siddhis from his first guru, and later taking the Sanyasa from his second guru, are very beautifully presented in the film. Based on his Guru's teachings, he simplifies the explanation of Advaita and spreads the same across India. The sequence of his visit to Kaasi (present day Banaras), winning over other pundits, meeting with Chandala and transforming him, along with his other followers, beyond caste and creed, winning the argument with Mandana Misra is worth a watch. Finally, he is declared as a Jagadguru in the climax when he announces four branches of Shankara muths and before leaving this abode for his next journey after life.
The film will bring the audience close to this great saint and provide an opportunity to understand the ancient vedic culture of India which is the real treasure that has always been appreciated all over the globe.
