Hare Ram is a 2008 Indian Telugu-language action thriller film directed by Harshavardhan, and produced by Kalyan Ram, under N.T.R. Arts. It stars Kalyan Ram in a dual role, along with Priyamani, Sindhu Tolani, Brahmanandam, Kota Srinivasa Rao, Ali and Raghu Babu. Mickey J Meyer composed the music, C. Ram Prasad handled the cinematography, and Gautam Raju edited the film. The action sequences were choreographed by Stunt Silva and Ram-Lakshman.[1]
The narrative revolves around a conflict between Hari and Ram, conjoined twins separated at birth. When their parents part ways, Hari grows up to become an honest cop while Ram becomes a mentally unstable and violent man ready to kill anyone smarter than him, including his own brother. When Ram's killing spree begins, Hari takes charge and decides to arrest him within 24 hours or lose his job at the 25th hour.
The film was released on 18 July 2008 and became a commercial success.[2] In 2011, it was dubbed into Hindi-language as Julmo Ka Tandav (transl. Orgy of cruelties) and in Odia under the same name. Later in an interview for his 2013 action thriller Om 3D, Kalyan Ram revealed Hare Ram to be the first Telugu-language film to make use of a flycam.[3]
