Official Trailer and Plot of Martin Luther King
Two brothers, Jagjivan Ram (Naresh) and Lokmanya Tilak (Venkatesh Maha), aspire to be the village president in Padamarapadu. Classifying voters according to caste makes their election contest turn odd and ends in a tie. The lowly cobbler Smile (Sampoornesh Babu) has the deciding vote. As the narrative progresses, we see the brothers’ attempts to get Smile to cast his ballot, his development into Martin Luther King, and the thrilling disclosure of his decision.
Cast and Crew of Martin Luther King
The movie stars Venkatesh Maha, Naresh, and Sharanya Pradeep in important roles in addition to Sampoornesh Babu. Smaran Sai composed the musical score for this joint project by YNOT Studios, Reliance Entertainment, and Venkatesh Maha’s Mahayana Motion Pictures. The movie is directed and edited by Puja Kolluru and the story is written by Madonne Ashwin.
Reception of Martin Luther King
Even though people liked Sampuranesh Babu’s acting skills in the movie, the movie didn’t do well at the box office. IMDB gave the movie a rating of 8.8 on its rating scale but that too didn’t save the movie. Now, let’s see how the viewers react to this political satire on digital media. Watch out for this space for more updates.
The movie did not get as popular in Telugu as it was in Tamil. There is not much to amuse the audience. However, Sampuranesh Mark’s humour has been a success. Social media users like the reels made from the Martin Luther King movie. The critically acclaimed Martin Luther King film is now available for digital streaming.
