Censor Board clears Allari Naresh's horror-thriller '12A Railway Colony' for release with U/A certificate
Hyderabad, Nov 19
The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has now cleared director Nani Kasaragadda's eagerly-awaited horror thriller '12A Railway Colony', featuring actor Allari Naresh in the lead, for release with a U/A certificate.
Taking to its X timeline, Srinivasaa Silver Screen, the production house producing the film, wrote, "It's ð—¨/ð—” with Lot of Thrills. Gear Up to enjoy the Complete Entertainer with Many Twists and Turns."
The film has triggered huge interest in fans and audiences ever since the makers released a title teaser for the film.
Actor Allari Naresh, while sharing the title teaser, had said, " There is no need to escape alive...! Welcome to the paranormal world of #12ARailwayColony. Title Teaser."
Dr. Anil Vishwanath, who is known for his work on 'Polimera' and 'Polimera 2', has taken on the role of the showrunner, besides providing the story, screenplay, and dialogues for this ambitious venture.
The movie, which is being produced by Srinivasaa Chitturi, of the renowned production house Srinivasaa Silver Screen, is to be presented by Pavan Kumar.
The project marks the directorial debut of Nani Kasaragadda, who will not only be directing but will also be handling the editing responsibilities.
The teaser released by the makers provides a glimpse of the movie's premise. It opens with Allari Naresh standing by a window, deep in thought, setting a contemplative mood. Viva Harsha's voiceover inquires why spirits only appear to a select few, hinting at the supernatural elements to come.
As the teaser progresses, eerie and unsettling occurrences unfold, with every character becoming increasingly suspicious. The tension culminates in a dramatic moment where Allari Naresh's character shoots someone and, with a sinister smile, leaves the audience eager to know more.
Allari Naresh seems to have come up with another interesting role in this film, which features Dr Kamakshi Bhaskarla of Polimera series fame as the leading lady.
Along with the lead pair, actors Sai Kumar, Viva Harsha, Getup Srinu, Saddam, Jeevan Kumar, Gagan Vihari, Anish Kuruvilla, and Madhumani will be seen playing pivotal roles in the film.
The film has cinematography by Kushendar Ramesh Reddy and music by Bheems Ceciroleo. It is scheduled to hit screens worldwide on November 21 this year.

Railway colony setting sounds intriguing! Reminds me of those childhood stories about haunted railway quarters. Hope this delivers genuine scares rather than just jump scares. Dr. Anil Vishwanath's involvement from Polimera series is promising.
U/A certificate for a horror thriller? CBFC must have been lenient. Usually they cut all the good scary parts. Hope the film retains its edge despite the certification. Allari Naresh needs a hit after his recent films.
As someone who loves Indian horror films, I appreciate that they're exploring railway settings. There's something inherently spooky about old railway colonies. The cast looks interesting too - looking forward to this one!
Hope this isn't another cliché horror film with the same old tropes. Indian horror needs fresh storytelling. The director being debutant is concerning, but the Polimera writer's involvement gives me some hope. Let's see!
Perfect timing for a horror release! Diwali season is over and now we need some good entertainment. Allari Naresh's transformation from comedy to serious roles has been impressive. Booking tickets for first day first show! 🎬
