The upcoming period action drama ‘David Reddy,’ directed by Hanuma Reddy Yakkanti and starring Manchu Manoj, has cast Ukrainian model Maria Riabhoshapka as the female lead. She will portray the character Clara Whitmore in the film. Director Hanuma Reddy introduced Maria Riabhoshapka on Instagram, describing her character as having a ruthless love in the Brutal Era.
Actor Manchu Manoj, who plays the lead role in ‘David Reddy,’ welcomed Maria Riabhoshapka to the project with enthusiasm. He expressed excitement about seeing her bring the character of Clara Whitmore to life with grace, depth, and fire in this grand Pan Indian historical action drama. Maria Riabhoshapka’s entry into the film was met with warm regards from the lead actor.
Last year, on completing 21 years in the film industry, Manchu Manoj revealed the title ‘David Reddy’ for this historical action drama. He expressed gratitude to his supporters for enabling him to continue pursuing his passion for cinema. The film, set between 1897 to 1922, promises to be a raw, intense, high-octane portrayal of valor meeting destiny in a historical context.
The storyline of ‘David Reddy’ hints at a narrative revolving around India’s fight for independence, as indicated by the poster shared by Manchu Manoj. The caption on the poster suggests a tale of rebellion against the British empire, with the protagonist’s origins traced from the Madras Presidency to Delhi. The film is poised to deliver an epic storytelling experience under the direction of Hanuma Reddy Yakkanti.
