The trailer for Ram Gopal Varma’s latest directorial- ‘Konda’ was unveiled at an event held on Wednesday. Billed to be the biopic of Konda Murali and Konda Surekha, the duo recalls the terrific attacks they had faced in their lives.

Murali lauded Ram Gopal Varma for his dedication, as he was in Warangal for more than 75 days just to shoot the movie ‘Konda’.

“I narrated a few things in my life. Ram Gopal Varma researched and went on, to speak with several native folks to know more about my past and how I survived the most brutal attack”, Murali said.

Surekha said, “The trailer has reminded me of the dark days when we faced the toughest challenges in life.”

“The day on which my husband was subjected to an assault, there was blood everywhere. As I recall the incident, it still feels so dark. I was shell-shocked as I saw my husband in a blood pool,” Surekha said.
