Before the pandemic watching movies wasn’t a big task, but with the new age and movie theatres being shut for more than a year, watching movies has become a questionable affair, but audiences need not worry for long. As the adage goes, ‘desperate times call for desperate measures’, filmmakers have found a way to premiere their films on digital streaming platforms, namely OTT platforms.
To watch Telugu movies in HD quality, you have to purchase a subscription plan to unfold a wide array of films spread across various genres.
One such OTT Platform that has been launched new into the market is AHA. This Telugu-only streaming platform is definitely for Telugu film and regional cinephiles and everyone who enjoys a good film.
Satya 2
Satya 2 is a 2013 Telugu action-thriller, written and directed by veteran Ram Gopal Verma and is the sequel to the first film Satya and the fourth film in his Gangster series. Shot both in Hindi and Telugu, the film stars Puneet Singh, Sharwananand, Anaika Soti, and Mahesh Thakur.
The duo Sanjeev-Darshan composed the music and the cinematography was done by VikashSaraf.The film tells the tale of an ordinary man Satya, trying to make it big in the infamous underworld of Hyderabad.
The film opens with a narration that narrates the doings of the underworld in Hyderabad and how it is practically dormant in recent times. The story then shifts to the main protagonist Satya, who comes to Hyderabad to work for a construction magnate.
A situation arises for which he gets involved in the mafia and the underworld and, like an endless abyss, gets sucked into its depth.
A short chain of events causes Satya to kill everyone in his path to save himself, like RK, the retired mafia leader. Throughout the journey, Satya makes many connections, and the heist life makes him lose himself; he loses his lover Chitra and his friends and makes enemies all around.
In a shootout with the police, Satya gets jailed, but his connections let him out, and it is then revealed that he happens to be the new leader of the underworld of Hyderabad.
The heist film genre and criminal thrillers have been extremely popular, and Ram Gopal Verma’s infamous Gangster series has changed the face of thriller films. On its release and its raw depiction of the underworld, he has acquired a cult king status and could be credited as the veteran to popularise the Mafia genre in Indian films.To check full movies online, head over to AHA and purchase your subscription today!
