Contents

The film premiered on aha on 23 October 2020. The project includes many debutants who previously worked on short films, including the director of the film, Sandeep Raj. [5] The film was shot completely in Machilipatnam, Vijayawada and the surrounding areas in Andhra Pradesh. [6] At the 68th National Film Awards, it won the Best Feature Film in Telugu. [7]

Plot

The film begins with Deepthi receiving the news of her father's death. She and her husband Chandu reach their village and meet their family. Ramaraju, Deepthi's brother and the local sub-inspector, tries to talk to her, but she shuts him down and goes to her ex Jayakrishna's house in his jeep. Her friend Padmaja accompanies her, and they spot a couple arguing. Deepthi finds their issues very similar to her past with Jayakrishna, and narrates her story.

Jayakrishna, the son of a milkman, studies in the same college as Deepthi's. He once saw her rehearsing for a performance as a goddess, and fell in love with her. However, unlike Deepthi, he is dark skinned and from a poor economic background. Hence, he never expresses his feelings towards her. A year later, a few seniors rag Jayakrishna by tricking him into going to Deepthi's rehearsal and then beat him up for "teasing girls". Deepthi and her friends go to the principal and explain what truly happened, and Jayakrishna gets out of trouble. However, he starts avoiding them, as he does not want anyone to think badly. Deepthi confronts and proposes to Jayakrishna. On Jayakrishna's request, she accepts to keep their relationship a secret. With her encouragement, he beats up the seniors who beat him up and earns confidence and courage.

Unexpectedly, Padmaja and Jayakrishna's friend Bala Yesu "Balu" get to know about their relationship. They, too, accept to keep this a secret. Things go well for the couple until a fest, where the college principal denies Jayakrishna an opportunity to speak on the stage because of his skin tone. Jayakrishna feels insulted and gives a speech on the stage, criticising colour discrimination in front of the chief guest - a foreigner who does not understand Telugu and considers it a speech favouring engineering.

The principal, along with the seniors that have a grudge against him, decides to take revenge. On Deepthi's birthday, when Jayakrishna meets her in an empty class, the seniors lock the room and allege that the couple were having an amorous relationship. Ramaraju is angered and sends her away from the village. Jayakrishna is beaten up subsequently. However, as Deepthi arrives to collect her hall ticket, Jayakrishna shows up and leaves with her as Ramaraju is stuck in the college with their friends' help.

The couple feels encouraged and leaves happily. Then, Padmaja and Deepthi recollect the actual happenings. Jayakrishna was beaten up, humiliated, and his certificates were burnt by Ramaraju, thus ensuring that he gets no job in the future. He also kills Lakshmi, a calf Jayakrishna has raised very dearly, naming it after his deceased mother and cooks the calf into beef biryani and forces Jayakrishna to eat it, pretending it is mutton biryani. When Jayakrishna retorted, Ramaraju broke his leg, leaving him lame.

Jayakrishna met Deepthi when she arrived to receive her hall ticket, and they decide to commit suicide by consuming poison. Jayakrishna dies on the spot, but Deepthi was rescued by Ramaraju. Balu was left devastated and lost his sanity. The film ends with Deepthi learning that no photo of Jayakrishna exists in the village, and she drawing his portrait, calling it the 'Colour Photo'.

Cast

Production

Development

Director Sandeep Raj has already directed and was known for acting in few short films. In 2019, he decided to direct a small-budget film with his short films team. [14] [15] Most of the actors in the film were previously YouTubers and those who did few short films. In an interview, Raj said that he wants to direct films which have versatile story-telling. [16]

Cast and crew

As a maker of short-films, I used to work with a small crew. But when it comes to a feature film, there would be 80-100 people on set at any given time. Many wouldn't even be aware of who is the film's director. I have learned how to manage people on set. It's important, like directorial skills.

— Sandeep Raj, Raagalahari

Sandeep Raj decided to feature the YouTubers he worked with. Chandini Chowdary already made her debut as a lead actress in Tollywood, also acted in few short films in early days. Suhas, the hero of the film is a good friend of Raj, also started his career from short films. [17] Suhas also been as a comedian in many big Tollywood films. The director thus decided to cast these actors in leading roles. [18] Actor Sunil was roped into the film as the main antagonist. [19] Most of the other actors were also acted in few short films. In an interview Sandeep Raj revealed that Chandini Chowdary was not the first choice for the lead actress role, it is Niharika Konidela who was the first considered for the role. [20] [21] In an interview to Film Companion South, Suhas told that, "My hundred short films prepared me for feature films". [22] [23]

With the success of the music album of Mathu Vadalara , [24] Sandeep chose Kaala Bhairava for the film's soundtrack and background score. [25] The story is written by Sai Rajesh from his own incidents he faced. Debutant Venkat Shakamuri handled the cinematography of the film. [26] Kranthi Priyam was chosen as the art director who previously worked in Agent Sai Srinivasa Athreya (2019). [27]

Filming

Principal photography of the film started on 8 January 2020 in Hyderabad. The film was completely shot in Machilipatnam, Vijayawada and the surrounding parts. The story of the film also revolves around these places. [28] [29]

Post-production

By the end of March 2020, shooting of the film was almost done. [30] Post-production was completed by mid-April. [31]

Themes and influences

The film's central theme revolves around colourism. It is based on real-life incidents of the film's story writer Sai Rajesh. [32] [33] A reviewer of TeluguCinema stated that the film is all about 'Colour'. He further added that Colour Photo deals with colourism, and boasts good dialogue writing. Despite tad slow-paced and dull initial portions, the latter half of the film has touching moments. [34]

Another reviewer of GreatAndhra noted that "The genre of love stories has dealt with issues including casteism, and honor killings. What other new topics would a writer come up with for a conflict point for a love story? Here, Sai Rajesh has touched upon this issue of colourism. While this issue has not been dealt with much in our films, the proceedings have little novelty." [35]

Sanat Kumar Malik of FastNewsFeeds wrote, "’It’s 1999 and people still discriminate based on skin colour and caste,’ rues Jayakrishna in Colour Photo. Oh well, in 2020, we still need the hashtag ‘Black Lives Matter’ and skin lightening creams continue to have many takers." [36]

Murali Krishna CH of Cinema Express wrote that the dialogues and performance while pointing out there were some scenes.''
