> The makers of Reality have released Devika Bhat's first look as Aalochana in Kiran Abbavaram's first film as a director, a middle-class family drama that opens in theatres on December 25.

Devika Bhat is the leading lady of Reality, and the makers have now unveiled her first look as Aalochana. The film marks Kiran Abbavaram's debut as a director.

In the poster, Devika and Kiran share a cheerful moment together in a kitchen. She keeps her look simple and natural, and the homely setting gives the whole frame the feel of an ordinary day in a family home.

Kiran has written the script around a middle-class household. Its hero dreams of one thing above all else: getting free of debt. Built on that premise and plenty of family emotion, Reality is pitched as a family drama that sets out to entertain while staying close to everyday life.

Sudhakar Chaganti is producing the film. Reality is scheduled to open in theatres on December 25, right in the middle of the Christmas holidays.
