The video features Nayanthara speaking in Telugu with her team, grooving to Chiranjeevi’s classic hits during a car ride, flipping through the script, and even delivering one of his iconic dialogues — all with her signature charm. Director Anil Ravipudi makes a surprise appearance at the end, sealing the announcement.
The film is produced by Sahu Garapati under the Shine Screens banner, in association with Sushmita Konidela’s Gold Box Entertainments. Touted as a full-fledged entertainer, the film marks Nayanthara’s third collaboration with Chiranjeevi after Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy and Godfather.
