‘Vishwa Guru Jai Sri Ramanuj’ Trailer Launched

  

The much-awaited trailer of the film ‘Vishwa Guru Jai Sri Ramanuj’, based on the life of the revered Indian philosopher and social reformer Shri Ramanujacharya, was launched in Mumbai amidst much fanfare. Known for propagating the Vishishtadvaita philosophy, Ramanujacharya authored significant texts like Sri Bhashya and Vedanta Sangraham.

 

The event witnessed the presence of actor Dr. Lion Sai Venkat, who plays an incredible 13 roles in the film, along with Bigg Boss fame Saurabh Kumar, Telugu actress Kajal, Padma, who portrays Goddess Lakshmi, and renowned filmmaker Shiva Kumar. Other prominent personalities from the film industry also graced the occasion.

 

Produced under the Sudarshanam Productions banner, the film is helmed by Dr. Lion Sai Venkat, who has also penned the story and screenplay. Dialogues are by Pravalika and Harsha, while music is composed by Jayasurya, Venkat, and Harsha, with lyrics by Santosh Prasad. The soulful voices of Padma, Prasanna, and Pravalika bring the film’s devotional songs to life.

The nearly four-minute trailer begins with the resonating sound of a conch, accompanied by a voiceover introducing Shri Ramanuj as the eternal keeper of cosmic knowledge. The visuals open with Shri Ramanuj meditating in a serene forest, where his divine aura protects him from disturbances. The trailer then transitions to scenes of Shri Ramanuj delivering sermons and referencing Tirumala Hills. Notably, the trailer features a clip of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, adding a contemporary layer to the narrative.

A striking sequence showcases an ancient idol of Lord Vishnu reclining on Sheshnag, with the chanting of “Shantakaram Bhujagashayanam Padmanabham Suresham,” creating a captivating spiritual ambiance. Another devotional song highlights all incarnations of Lord Vishnu, while the depiction of Shri Ramanuj's conflict with a Delhi Sultan adds a dramatic and historical dimension to the film.

Responding to media questions at the event, Dr. Lion Sai Venkat shared his vision behind the film. “The life of Shri Ramanujacharya is an inspiration for all of us. However, the younger generation is often unaware of his teachings and contributions. Through this film, I aim to bridge that gap and introduce his principles to today’s youth. I believe this project was divinely inspired, and I am merely executing the will of God. With the film now in post-production, we are preparing for a global release in March 2025 across five languages.”

Shot in iconic locations like Ramoji Film City Hyderabad, Bengaluru, and the picturesque Tirumala Hills, ‘Vishwa Guru Jai Sri Ramanuj’ will release worldwide in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Sanskrit, and Hindi, bringing this remarkable story to audiences far and wide.
