MSG Is A Full Meal Feast: Anil Ravipudi

The Mega Victory Pre-Release Event of Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu took place in Hyderabad in the presence of two major stars- Megastar Chiranjeevi and Victory Venkatesh.

Producer Sahu Garapati expressed his gratitude to Anil Ravipudi for giving him the opportunity to work with both Chiranjeevi and Venkatesh. He added, “Last Sankranthi, Anil shook the box office. This Sankranthi, he’s going to redefine it. That’s how confident we are. The entire team supported us immensely to bring the film on time.”

Sushmita Konidela described the project as a major milestone in her career. “Doing a film for Sankranthi is huge by itself, but doing a film with my father is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Thanks to Venkatesh and Nayanthara, the film has gone one step higher. Anil Ravipudi is the backbone of this movie. My biggest love to Ram Charan- he always checks on me, asking if I’m doing okay.”

Director Anil Ravipudi also set the stage on fire as he joined singer Baba Sehgal to perform the Hook Step song live at the event. He said: “A special thanks to producers Sahu Garapati and Sushmita Konidela, who believed in this project from the beginning and carried it forward with complete trust. Everyone should applaud Bheems- he has composed extraordinary songs and delivered his best album.

I thank Nayanthara, who participated in two promotional videos. She extended her full support even during the industry strike. Victory Venkatesh is both a friend and a guide; his greatness lies in his positivity and sporting nature. People are already discussing his role in various ways. The main reason he came on board is Chiranjeevi. In the film, he appears as Venky Gowda from Karnataka.

Working with both of them is a dream for many. They came together to offer Telugu audiences a grand festive treat. I hope I get the opportunity someday to make a full-fledged film with the two of them.

Chiranjeevi has achieved so much—he even holds Guinness World Records. This journey with him is something I will cherish for a lifetime. Every day on set felt like watching different shades of his classic characters come alive. On the last day of shoot, he gave me a warm hug- it’s a moment I’ll never forget.

This film is a wholesome feast with comedy, emotion, music, dance, sentiment- everything in the right blend.”

He also extended his best wishes to all the films releasing this Sankranthi.
