Eega ([The Fly] Error: {{Langx}}: text has italic markup (help)) is a 2012 Indian bilingual fantasy film written by K. V. Vijayendra Prasad and directed by his son, S. S. Rajamouli. It was produced by Korrapati Ranganatha Sai's Varahi Chalana Chitram with an estimated budget of ₹260 to 400 million, simultaneously in Telugu and Tamil. The film stars Sudeep, Nani and Samantha Ruth Prabhu (pictured with the director). The narrative is in the form of a bedtime story told by a father to his daughter. Its protagonist is Nani, who is in love with his neighbour Bindu. Nani is murdered by a wealthy businessman named Sudeep, who is attracted to Bindu and considers Nani a rival. Nani reincarnates as a housefly and tries to protect Bindu while avenging his death. The film's production began on 7 December 2010 at Ramanaidu Studios in Hyderabad. Principal photography began on 22 February 2011 and continued until late February 2012. The two versions of the film, alongside a Malayalam-dubbed version titled Eecha, were released on 6 July 2012 in approximately 1,100 screens globally. Eega won two National Film Awards, five Filmfare Awards, and three South Indian International Movie Awards. It was screened at international film festivals. (Full article...)

- Comment: Why the line "It was screened at International Film Festivals"? Perhaps a mention of which festival could help, or just write screened at various international film festivals. Kailash29792 (talk) 10:48, 29 May 2017 (UTC)
- The "blurb" is always a tricky thing how to reduce the opening of the article. Three festivals are listed in the article, but to mention just one would be unfair, and three undue weight. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:23, 29 May 2017 (UTC)
