Happy to start a youngster production house like Swathi and do rustic thriller ‘Mangalavaram’ with talented director Ajay Bhupathi – Megastar Chiranjeevi
After ‘RX 100’ and ‘Mahasamudram’, the movie ‘Mangalavaram’ is coming under the direction of Ajay Bhupathi. Payal Rajput and Ajmal Amir acted as a couple. The movie will release on November 17 in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam and Hindi languages. Swathi Reddy Gunupathi and Suresh Verma are producing this film under the banner of Mudra Media Works.
Megastar Chiranjeevi released the trailer of ‘Mangalavaram’ via Twitter (X). While he released it online… Hero Karthikeya released it offline.
Chiranjeevi said through Twitter, “The producers of this film, Swathi Reddy Gunupathi and Suresh Verma, are close friends of mine. Especially Swathi Reddy is a very dynamic girl. My girl is a good friend of Sreeja. For me, it is very exciting to see young people, including young women, entering various branches of the film industry. They can give a new direction to film making and marketing with their new ideas, new energy. Therefore, it is a great pleasure to start a youngster production house like Swathi Reddy and make this film as a first attempt with a talented director like Ajay Bhupathi. I am happy that the trailer of this movie, which is made as a rustic action thriller in the background of the village, is being released at my hands. Wishing the film a super duper success, all the best to the entire team!” he tweeted.
Young protagonist, Ajay Bhupathi’s first movie ‘RX 100’ hero Karthikeya said, “RX 100 has been released for five years. Now when I come here and sit, I feel like I am in the success meeting of that movie. Ever since the release of ‘RX 100’, when everyone was asking when I, Ajay Bhupathi or I and Payal would do it, I kept telling them that a good story should be done. I am the favorite of both of them. One day I saw the news that both of them were doing a movie. Sir what will we do! These are not days for goodness. They left me and made a movie. We completed the shooting of ‘RX 100’ in 50 days. I know how big a movie Ajay Bhupathi will make if he shoots for 100 days. He shot ‘RX 100’ in their hometown Atreyapuram. Now he has shown that town in a different way in this movie. We think that Godavari is like in Vamsi Gari’s movies. He started a new genre with ‘RX 100’. Now the movie. 100 percent I am weighing more than this movie. The trailer shows that Ajanish’s music is amazing,” he said.
Karthikeya said that he did the film in front of Payal and Ajay Bhupathi, not with him… Did you think that he would not make it with you? It should be repeated first with Karthikeya. As the mind told me, I went and did ‘Tuesday’. Very soon, there will be a film with 100 percent our combination (Kartikeya). It is not normal. It is in the plan. There is a shocking story,” said Ajay Bhupathi.
Ajay Bhupathi said, “I was introduced to KCW Karthikeya Creative Works through ‘RX100’. Karthikeya is the hero of that movie. He is the producer. Now I started ACW (Ajay Bhupathi Creative Works). Let’s see if KCW and ACW meet in future. Music director Ajaneesh is suffering from severe fever. Therefore, he could not come here. Our cinematographer Shivendra got an opportunity to do a film with Nagarjuna after the release of ‘Mangalavaram’ teaser. He got busy. Thanks to both of them and all other technicians. It is a dark thriller. She made a different genre of film. I can’t say anything more than that. It is still difficult to make a dark thriller with this type of Village & Nativity. Editing and sound should be kept in mind while shooting. Shoot with the full script. I have touched a point that no one has touched. I hope they will support this movie like they supported ‘RX 100’. There is a reason behind the title ‘Mangalavaram’. You will know that by watching the movie. Tuesday is the favorite day of the gods. It is also known as Jayavaram. Someone says some crazy proverbs. Ignore them. Let’s talk about our producers. Swati garu is very classy. She is so raw and rustic, my film was a success when the masses accepted the film. I don’t say it is a female oriented movie. We have touched the point related to women. She liked it and said that she will make the film. All the shooting was done outside Hyderabad. The budget has increased. However, they anchored that she is doing a big film. Thanks to my elder brother Suresh Verma and Swathi Reddy,” he said.
