Ahead of the release of Vishwak Sen’s Ori Devuda on 21 October, its makers are busy creating hype around the movie. The flick has already garnered quite some attention from movie lovers.

The pre-release function, held in Rajamundry on Sunday, 16 October, saw a huge attendance. Actor Ram Charan was the chief guest. Fans of Ram Charan and Vishwak Sen have flooded social media with Ori Devuda posts ever since.

Continuing the momentum, Ori Devuda makers announced a meme contest. They gave a call to creators to come up with memes using the hashtag #OridevudaMemesContest and also tag PVP Cinema in their posts.

The top 100 meme creators — 50 from the poster memes category and another 50 from the video memes category — will be invited to a party with the Ori Devuda team on Tuesday, 18 October.

Vishwak Sen is known for having a following among memers and on social media platforms. The Ori Devuda team appears to have decided to cash in on it.

The movie is a remake of the Tamil hit Oh My Kadavule. Ashwath Marimuthu, who has written and directed the original, is helming it in Telugu as well.

“Director Ashwath Marimuthu has come up with a heart-touching story. Ori Devuda is much more than a romantic comedy. It will impress people of all ages and everyone will relate to it. With Diwali around the corner, we are confident that Ori Devuda will have a repeat audience,” said Vishwak Sen at the pre-release function.

The film’s trailer hinted that it would be a funky and hilarious entertainer, just like Vishwak Sen’s previous movies.

Senior actor Venkatesh also shares the screen with Vishwak Sen, while Mithila Palkar is the female lead.

Rahul Ramakrishna, Murali Sharma, Nagineedu, and others are playing supporting roles. The romantic comedy is jointly produced by PVP Cinema and Dil Raju.
