ఆస్ట్రేలియాలోని సిడ్నీలో పర్యాటకులపై కా*ల్పులు

Megastar Chiranjeevi has expressed immense happiness and emotional attachment towards Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, as revealed during the film’s pre-release event. The legendary actor shared heartfelt thoughts about the film, its team, and the memorable journey he experienced while working on the project.

Chiranjeevi began his speech by extending his best wishes to all the Sankranti releases, saying, “Let Sankranti 2026 be unforgettable for Telugu cinema. This festive season is bringing films that families will truly enjoy. I urge everyone to watch them only in theatres.”

Recalling how the project took shape, Chiru mentioned that veteran director Raghavendra Rao had praised Anil Ravipudi’s comic timing and storytelling abilities years ago, and fittingly, this film began with his blessings. “When Anil narrated the story, I immediately liked it because it had all the essential elements. When I suggested trying something different, Anil firmly said, ‘No… you must play this character in your classic style,’” Chiranjeevi revealed.

The Megastar went on to praise Anil Ravipudi’s preparation and vision, stating that the director referred to several scenes and moments from his earlier films to bring out the vintage Chiranjeevi magic. “Working with Anil has been a wonderful experience. On the final day of the shoot, I became very emotional. I’ve never felt that way before,” he added.

Chiranjeevi also expressed confidence in the film’s success, noting that it has already become a “super hit at the production level.” “The film was completed on time, within budget, and we achieved our first victory. The second victory now lies in the hands of the audience,” he said.

Speaking fondly about co-star Venkatesh, Chiru described him as deeply philosophical and wise beyond his age. “He feels like a compact-sized guru to me. He balances cinema and personal life beautifully. We enjoyed every moment working together—it was endless fun,” he shared.

Music director Bheems Ceciroleo also received special appreciation from the Megastar. Chiranjeevi praised the composer for delivering organic and energetic music, with clearly audible lyrics. He also highlighted a special rap song composed by Bheems, calling it one of the film’s major attractions.

Concluding his speech, Chiranjeevi extended his best wishes to producers Sahu Garapati and Sushmita Konidela, expressing gratitude for their support and commitment to the project.
