Cast

Production

The film began production in 2010 with Srikanth and Vimala Raman in the lead roles; however, Raman was later replaced by Charmy Kaur.[2] The film released in 2013 due to much delay.[3] Manjula Ghattamaneni and Krishna were signed to portray guest roles.[3][4]

Music by Srikanth Deva.[5]

Release and reception

The film was scheduled to be released in February 2012, but was delayed to January 2013.[4] The Times of India gave the film a rating of one-and-a-half out of five stars and noted that " It's another vigilante movie that's very low on IQ and high on misplaced jingoism".[6] News18 wrote that "Call it a passe or simply lazy filmmaking, but all that the Telugu film 'Sevakudu manages at the end is present you with a rehash of several Telugu films released over the year".[7]
