Megastar Chiranjeevi is once again proving why he remains a powerhouse in Telugu cinema. His upcoming film with blockbuster director Anil Ravipudi has just completed another major schedule, and buzz around the project is growing by the day. With each leg of the shoot moving swiftly, the team is clearly operating on a mission mode to hit its Sankranti 2026 release target.
Precision in Planning, Power in Performance
The latest schedule, filmed in specially constructed sets in Hyderabad, featured solo scenes with Chiranjeevi, who reportedly wrapped up his portions with trademark speed and precision. Anil Ravipudi, known for his mass-friendly storytelling and tight screenplay work, is bringing a grounded, village-based backdrop to life, placing Chiru in a rustic role with a Rayalaseema accent — a refreshing change for fans.
Kerala Vibes & Viral Buzz
Earlier, the cast — including Nayanthara — shot key romantic sequences in the scenic beauty of Kerala. A video showing Chiru and Nayanthara in traditional attire on a flower-decked boat sent social media into a frenzy. The chemistry and cultural setup hinted at both nostalgia and novelty in equal measure.
On Track for Sankranti 2026
With a tight 90-day shooting plan, Ravipudi and team are managing the production with clockwork discipline. Two major schedules are complete, and the final leg is expected to wrap by October 2025. Post-production will begin in parallel, keeping the film well-positioned for a grand festival release.
What to Expect
Mass, melody, rural flavor, and megastar magic — this film is shaping up to be a full-blown festival entertainer. With Chiranjeevi in a new avatar and Anil Ravipudi behind the camera, expectations are sky-high.
