The makers of the much-awaited movie Radhe Shyam released a new poster on the occasion of Mahashivratri. Touted to be a romantic-drama film, Radhe Shyam stars Prabhas and Pooja Hegde in the lead and is set to release on July 30, 2021. The new poster, which is said to have been released as a mark of respect to the epic love story of Shiva and Parvati, shows the two lying down on the ground next to each other, with their faces in different directions, against a snow-clad backdrop.
In a release, the makers of Radhe Shyam said that the poster showcases the grandeur of the film and the massive scale at which it has been made.
The movie is set in Rome and has been shot in picturesque locations of Italy and Rome. Recently, on Valentine's Day, the makers had released a motion poster of the movie, with glimpses from the film. The video opens in Italy where the film was predominantly shot. With melodious background music scored by composer Justin Prabhakaran playing, we see Prabhas trying to woo Pooja Hedge and saying a couple of lines in Italian. The scene appears to be set in a train station in early 20th century Europe.
Helmed by Radhe Krishna Kumar, Radhe Shyam is touted to be an epic romantic saga, where the plot revolves around reincarnation. Prabhas will also be essaying a romantic role after almost a decade.
