Power Star Puneet Raj Kumar's new film "Vamshi' to be produced under  Vajreshwari Combines banner by Ms. Parvathamma Raj Kumar was launched on Monday, March 24 at the Sadashivanagar residence of  Movie icon Late Dr.  Raj Kumar. As has been the practice in all Puneet's films produced under the home banner, it was Crazy Star Ravichandran who clapped for the film.  Prakash is the director of this film which will have music by Mano Murthy. Krishna Kumar is the cameraman.

The muhurath was attended by a large number of  Kannada film industry representatives who wished  the team's crew a big success.  Tallam Nanjunda Shetty,  President of the Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce,  H.D.Gangaraj, Former President of the KPCC, Sa.Ra.Govindoo, Vice President of the K.P.C.C.,  well known film directors S.Narayan, Naganna, Prem, Shivamani,  P.Sathya  and most of the current producers like Ramesh Babu, Soorappa Babu, Gurudatt  and many others were present. 

Talking to the media later director Prakash said that  the film has a strong emotional content with the  mother and son sentiment taking main focus. 

 'We also have grey shades of underworld in the backdrop and  a  love element  which forms part of the story.    I have just developed a line that was in my mind and now the entire script is ready with the dialogues.  We are shooting for the film starting from April 25.  We are yet to finalise the heroine of the film  and we have just selected Lakshmi to play the role of  Puneet's mother in the film.    We have made sure that this story does not have any shadow of other son and mother sentiment films that have been seen by the audience.  The presentation will be fresh and  Puneet will be seen in a different role in the film.  Even I have not dealt with an underworld related subject so far  and it will also be a new experience for me to handle such a subject.  The film will have its quota of  action sequences and entertainment elements to please Puneet's fans' said Prakash.

Raghavendra Raj Kumar said that when Prakash told  Vamshi's story line in the beginning, it was not sinking in him perfectly.  "I had told him to look for other stories, but finally after discussing many story lines we did come back to this story which was developed further.   It will be a different type of film for Puneet and Prakash who are dealing with such a subject for the first time.  But it is not correct to brand a  director in a particular type of films.   My father always felt that a director should not be branded and he should be given opportunities to direct different type of films.   Prakash also felt that he needed to move out from the type of films he is making' said Raghavendra Raj Kumar.

Parvathamma Raj Kumar said that she has heard the story  of the film and was impressed with it.  

Power Star Puneet Raj Kumar said that  he  has trust in Prakash and  the subject is as much fresh to him as for the director.
