Payal Rajput’s Mayapetika, a social drama, was released in theaters worldwide on June 30, 2023. Though the producers extensively promoted the film, it failed to impress audiences and became a flop at the box office. Famous Telugu Digital Platform Aha Video bagged the online rights to the movie at a high price and commenced streaming it on September 15, 2023.
However, an exciting development has occurred as Mayapetika is now available to stream on another platform. According to the latest update, ETV Win has acquired the digital rights, allowing Mayapetika to be streamed on the popular Telugu platform. Viraj Ashwin portrays one of the main characters in this movie, alongside Simrat Kaur and Payal Rajput as the female leads. Directed by Ramesh Raparthi, this film was released just before Baby, and it remains Viraj Ashwin’s most successful film to date. Rajath Raghav, Sunil, Prudhvi Raj, Srinivas Reddy, Himaja, and Syamala also play significant roles in this production. Just Ordinary Entertainments funded the project, with Magunta Sarath Chandra Reddy and Tharaknath Bommi Reddy as the main backers. Unfortunately, the film had a lackluster start at the box office and was pulled from theaters after only four days. Mayapetika revolves around a captivating concept: a mobile phone that changes hands between different families daily. The film explores how each family reacts to this situation and how the mobile phone ultimately impacts their lives.
The film features Suresh Ragutu as the cinematographer and Guna Balasubramanian as the music composer. D Venkata Prabhu and Nav Cuts served as the film’s editors. Additionally, Magunta Venkata Narayana Reddy is credited as the presenter. The film’s main character is a smartphone. Payal Rajput, a renowned actress in the Tollywood industry, gets an exquisite smartphone from a generous producer. The moment she lays eyes on it, she gets captivated by its allure. However, due to an unforeseen circumstance, Payal decides to pass it on to her diligent assistant. Little did she know that this simple act would set a chain of events in motion as the phone embarks on a journey, exchanging hands and traversing through diverse locations. Each individual who came into possession of the device has their own unique encounters and experiences with it. With its intriguing narrative, the film unravels these individuals’ identities and sheds light on whether the smartphone proved to be a blessing or a curse in their lives.
