Energetic Star Ram Pothineni is raising the bar for his directorial debut RAPO23 by taking on an extraordinary workload both in front of and behind the camera. The actor-director completed a marathon 24-hour shooting stretch on the outskirts of Pondicherry, underlining the scale of his commitment to the project.

The latest Pondicherry schedule lasted for nearly nine days and featured an elaborate production setup. While delivering his performance as the protagonist, Ram was also actively involved in directing the proceedings, making the lengthy schedule particularly challenging.

The shoot was eventually brought to a temporary halt after unexpected rains disrupted the proceedings. The team has since returned to Hyderabad, but plans are already in place to travel back to Pondicherry and finish the portions left incomplete on the same massive setup.

RAPO23 is being mounted as a large-scale production, with Krishna Pothineni bankrolling it on Rapo Cinematics banner. More details about the film’s world, characters and additional cast are expected to emerge as production progresses.
