If you love watching content at the comfort of your home, then get ready to watch Jithender Reddy on ETV Win starting March 20, 2025.
Jitender Reddy is based on the true story of an RSS leader from Jagityal, exploring his life, struggles, and tragic death at the hands of Naxalites. Set in the 1980s and 90s, the film portrays how Jitender Reddy fought against the deep-rooted social inequalities in Telangana during that time. It also touches upon the political landscape of the era, including decisions made by figures like NTR and Vajpayee.
The film follows Jitender Reddy (Rakesh), a young man who is drawn to the values of the RSS, inspired by its commitment to uplift society. As he grows older, he becomes disillusioned with the Naxal movement after witnessing its violent and destructive methods. He believes that Naxalism is hindering the region's development and begins to speak out against it, making him a target of the Naxals.
The movie also delves into Jitender¡¯s personal life, including his bond with lawyer Sharada (Riya Suman), and his meeting with then-Chief Minister NTR, which becomes a key turning point in the story. Despite his efforts to bring change, Jitender's life is tragically cut short by the Naxalites. Jithender Reddy didn't do well at the box office and was a disaster.
This Gopi Sundar musical also starred Vaishali Raj, Subbaraju, Ravi Prakash, Rama Rao Jadhav, Chatrapathi Sekhar and Prem Sagar among others. Produced by Muduganti Ravinder Reddy, Jithender Reddy is cinematographed by Gnana Shekar V. S. and edited by Raamakrishna Reddy Arram.
