Chennai, Jan 4 (IANS): Telugu director C.S.R. Krishnan says that his forthcoming Telugu action-drama "Bakara" shows how a common man is being tricked and fooled everyday.

"It's sad but true that we get fooled at different junctures in our lives on a daily basis. Be it at the shopping mall or even at a grocery store, we're being fooled by rapidly increasing prices of the products. My film is based on such events and how a common man stands up against all odds," Krishnan told IANS.

He further added: "We always crib that the prices are skyrocketing, but seldom care about the root cause of the problem."

The film features Pavan, Pradeep and Naveen in the lead roles along with Sri Hari in an important role.

Rohit R.K. has composed the music for the film, which also stars Brahmanadam, M.S. Narayana, Ali, Raghubabu, Tanikella Bharani, Dharmavarapu Subramanyam and Rallapali.

Currently in post-production phase, "Bakara" is jointly produced by Sivarama Krishna and Appala Koteswara Rao.
