The audio of Snehitudu (remake of 3 Idiots, which is Nanban in Tamil) was released amidst impressive moments at Shilpa Kala Vedika, Hyderabad on Thursday night.
Ram Charan, Ileana, Raj Kumar Hirani, Vidhu Vinod Chopra, Vijay, Shankar, Sreeram (Srikanth), Harris Jayraj, Satyaraj, Gemini Kiran, Dil Raju and others graced the occasion. Udaya Bhanu and Venu Madhav anchored the event.
Ram Charan unveiled the audio CD and Vidhu Vinod Chopra launched the publicity trailer.
Director Shanker said that it gave him a piquant experience after doing a remake for the first time in his career. "When I was shooting for Robo in Pune, our team thought of taking a stroll and we were at a theatre in Pune, watching 3 Idiots. It was a beautiful experience, with its theme which states that tension is universal. I was impressed and soon a feeling overtook me that the film should be watched by all down south too. This is the reason for my venturing to take the remake. I hope I am successful. I am thankful to Harris Jayraj for giving extraordinary music."
Shankar also came out with the choicest praise for the cast, including Ileana.
Ram Charan said that he regretted having declined the offer to play the Aamir Khan in this version of 3 Idiots. Vijay thrilled the gathering as he spoke in Telugu, thanking the Telugu people for their great support.
