While revealing the reason behind making a film like 'Panne', which is based on the post-Independence Era, History lover and film Producer-Director Ram Alladi said, "While I was making Ra's Metanoia film, I had an opportunity to read more than a thousand letters of Gandhi ji which he received and wrote, from CWMG (Collective works of Mahatma Gandhi) and learnt more about that era. Just to remind the importance of independence for the people who lived in the dungeons and people who were still captivated in those dungeons. The dungeons of social imbalances, I decided to make this film."
Ram Alladi is going to release 'Panne' on his latest streaming platform 'In Talkies' which is also going to be launched with the movie.
