Papu Pampam turned into hero in ‘Rangeela Toka’

Govinda, in Bollywood, after going through a serious, romantic, drama type hero image changed to a comic hero in 90s which brought him more popularity and success. The reason might be that he became a complete package, a full entertainer who can sing, dance, fight, cry, and laugh- all at the same time.
In Ollywood, Papu Pampam after establishing himself as the super comedian of Odia TV, is now venturing into film, not as comedian but a hero. His Odia-industry-comedy-starhilarious TV shows in variety of TV channels has spoken a volume about his talent. And last year, audience has also witnessed his comedy in big screen with ‘Balunga Toka’. But, Papu Pampam is going one step ahead from comedian to hero as in his next movie ‘Rangeela Toka’ Papu himself is in the lead role. Hit album artist Debajani is also in the lead role opposite Papu.
Most of the producers in Ollywood have been giving utmost importance to comedy and comedians in their movies. But none of them has dared till date to cast comedians as hero. But for the first time, Prabhas Rout, producer of the movie has taken this unique step. ‘Rangeela Toka’ is being made under the banner of Oscar Movies. Ollywood popular hero Sidhant Mohapatra along with Minaketan and Rajiv are also there in the movie. The eminent presence of Papu Pampam in ‘Rangeela Toka’ reflects that the movie will be a super comedy flick, but it also has other elements like action, emotion, family drama. It is full of songs of every type composed by none other than Abhijit Majumdar.
Rangeela Toka is going to be an important movie for both Papu Pampam and Debajani because Papu Pampam has taken an important responsibility for the first time as hero and Debajani, though has acted in some of the movies previously, hasn’t been in lead role till date.
Scheduled to be released very soon, ‘Rangeela Toka’ is the next big movie of Oscar Movies after the blockbuster Balunga Toka.
