I Hope Kalinga achieves substantial success, Says BJP MP Raghunandan Rao at Pre-Release Event

Dhruva Vaayu, who earned acclaim with Kerosene, is directing the upcoming film Kalinga, besides acting as hero in it. Produced by Deepthi Kondaveeti and Pruthvi Yadav under the Big Hit Productions banner, the movie has already generated significant buzz with the teaser, posters, glimpses, and songs that captivated audiences. The pre-release event for the film, scheduled to hit theaters on September 13, was held on Tuesday and it was graced by BJP leader and MP Raghunandan Rao as the chief guest.

Speaking at the event, BJP MP Raghunandan Rao remarked, "Regardless of how busy one might be, watching movies is a part of our culture that helps relieve the fatigue of daily life. After the pandemic, everyone got accustomed to OTT platforms. The Telugu film industry is now witnessing a surge in experimental films, with smaller movies achieving great success. The teaser and trailer of this film are quite gripping. I hope Kalinga also achieves substantial success, and I wish the best for Dhruva and the producers."

Dhruva Vaayu shared his thoughts, saying, "I want to thank BJP leader Raghunandan Rao and my friend Thiruveer for attending our event. For the story I wrote, Yakub provided excellent dialogues. Cameraman Akshay worked tirelessly day and night with me. Editor Naresh has transformed the film beautifully. The visuals are impressive, and the background score by Vishva Shekhar has elevated the film to another level. Thanks to all the lyricists for the great songs. Preethi Sundar has played her dream role in this film. The support of my direction team made this film possible. Sanjay's performance will leave everyone stunned, and he will be seen as both a villain and a hero in big films in the future. Pragya Nayan has perfectly embodied her role, and I anticipate many big offers coming her way after this film. Many people have been asking if this film will be another Kantara or Virupaksha, but it is a completely new concept. Watch the film on September 13th for a new experience."

Thiruveer commented,"Writing the story, directing, and acting is no small feat. During the making of Ghazi, Dhruva and I discussed many things. He has written and directed Kerosene and brought profits to the producer. The teaser of Kalinga was quite intimidating. Dhruva has charted his own path. The movie is set to release in over five hundred theaters. Dhruva is an inspiration to all of us. I hope this film brings him more fame and success."

Producer Deepthi Kondaveeti said, "The film Kalinga has turned out wonderfully. People are talking about the songs and music, and the magic of the background score must be experienced in theaters. Akshay's visuals are stunning, and Sanju appears as a handsome villain in this film. We wanted Arya from Kerosene to be part of this project as well. We are delighted to have Thiruveer at our event. Yakub has written superb dialogues, and Pragya shines in her role. Her performance is exceptional, and she looks fantastic on screen. Thanks to Dhruva's dedication and passion that we are here today. Pruthvi has worked tirelessly for this film. Kalinga will be released on September 13. Everyone should watch it."

Producer Pruthvi Yadav stated, "Thanks to everyone who worked on Kalinga. The film has reached another level with Vishnu Shekhar's background score. Akshay's visuals are outstanding, and Pragya Nayan has been very cooperative. Dhruva Vaayu is the main pillar of this film. Please watch our movie on September 13."

Pragya Nayan expressed, "I am eagerly waiting for the release of Kalinga. We have received a great response to the teaser and trailer, with many people praising it. I expect similar positive feedback after the film is released. It has been a pleasure working with such a talented team. Dhruva Vaayu has been very supportive. Our film is set to release on September 13th. Please make sure to watch it."

Preethi Sundar said, "It has been a pleasure working with Dhruva Vaayu. This is my second film with Sanjay. Dhruva put in a lot of effort for Kerosene, and he has worked very hard on this film as well. I hope Kalinga becomes a big hit and brings profits and recognition to the director and producers."

Balagam Sanjay said, "Kalinga has turned out superbly. Dhruva has brought technicians from all over India. Experience this movie in theaters. We request the media to support our film. Kalinga is releasing on September 13, so please make sure to watch it."
