With the success of The Inside Edge and Mirzapur behind him, writer-director-creator Karan Anshuman was looking for something bigger to attach his name to. It came in the form of the Indian adaptation of the popular American series Ray Donovan, titled Rana Naidu, and fronted by Rana Daggubati. The action drama, also starring Daggubati’s star uncle Venkatesh, tells the story of a father-son duo who turn against each other against a high-octane backdrop.
“This is easily the biggest show I have done so far. It has given me a lot of freedom to do things that I may not have been able to do before,” starts-off Anshuman as he gushes over the perks of mounting the series with director Suparn Varma and producer Aaron Sunder. The filmmaker adds that the streaming giant Netflix and his producer had faith in him and the writers to pull off this project without compromising his vision. “Every step of filmmaking is essentially a compromise, right? From the idea on paper to the budget, but here, [I found] the freedom to write and direct.”
