Aagadu (transl. He won’t stop) is a 2014 Indian Telugu-language action comedy film directed by Srinu Vaitla. Written by Anil Ravipudi, Upendra Madhav and Praveen Varma, the film was jointly produced by Ram Achanta, Gopi Achanta and Anil Sunkara under their banner 14 Reels Entertainment. It stars Mahesh Babu, Tamannaah Bhatia and Sonu Sood in lead roles while Rajendra Prasad, Ashish Vidyarthi, Nassar, and Brahmanandam play supporting roles.
Aagadu was Thaman S's 50th film as a music composer, with K. V. Guhan as the cinematographer and M. R. Varma as the editor. Mahesh played Shankar, an encounter specialist who becomes the circle inspector of police in Bukkapatnam. He is tasked with stopping the power plant construction by Damodar (Sonu Sood), a crime boss, due to its environmental impact. Shankar later learns that Damodar is responsible for his brother Bharath's death, leading him to seek revenge.
Principal photography for Aagadu began on 28 November 2013 and concluded on 5 September 2014. Most of the film was shot in and around Hyderabad, with additional locations including Mumbai, Gujarat, Ballari and Kerala. Some song sequences were filmed in Ladakh, Switzerland and Ooty, in addition to Hyderabad and Bellary. The post-production phase lasted for 50 days and was completed on 16 September 2014.
Aagadu was theatrically released worldwide on 19 September 2014. While the film received a mix of positive and critical reviews, it underperformed at the box office, failing to recoup its budget of ₹65 crore.[2]
