Shriya Saran's upcoming movie "Pavitra", which happens to be a heroin oriented movie, is all set to release on May 10th. Shriya Saran is be seen in title role in this movie. The movie is directed by Janardhan Maharshi. The movie’s theatrical trailer was launched yesterday. Janardhan Maharshi, AVS and the movie’s producers have attended the event. Speaking to the media on the occasion of it's theatrical trailer release, the director of the movie Janardhan Maharshi has said, “I got a lot of good name and awards with Devasthanam; however, I didn’t make Pavitra to prove a point. Shriya is playing a bold role in the film and she is perfect for this kind of role. When my producers asked me whom I wanted to cast in the lead role, I happened to casually mention Shriya’s name and the very next day, I got a chance to narrate the story and impress her. Once, I read a news article where a governor of a state had insulted a prostitute and after sometime, she contested in the elections and defeated the governor. The story of Pavitra is inspired from that incident”.

The movie will also have prominent actors like Roja, Saikumar, Sayaji Shinde and Sivaji playing important roles in the movie. M M Srilekha has given the music to the movie which is set to be released in theatres on May 10th.
