Director Badrappa Gajula and lead actor Akhil Raj Uddemari of the upcoming Telugu comedy 'Crazy Kalyanam' visited the renowned Khairatabad Ganesh temple in Hyderabad on 21 September 2026 to seek divine blessings ahead of the film's theatrical release. The pre-release ritual, a cherished tradition in Telugu film circles, was shared publicly by production house Arrow Cinemas on its social media channels.

Arrow Cinemas Shares the Moment

Arrow Cinemas, which is producing the film as its Production No. 2, posted a video clip of both the director and the actor offering prayers at the temple. The production house described the film as 'a complete entertainer packed with laughter, emotions, fun, and unexpected twists' and urged audiences to 'get ready to witness the craziest wedding celebration on the big screen.' The post also tagged the film's key cast members, including Anupama Parameswaran and Tharun Bhascker.

What the Teaser Reveals

The film has already generated considerable buzz following the release of its teaser. The teaser centres on Keerthi, played by Anupama Parameswaran, whose proud and emotional father — portrayed by veteran actor Dr Naresh Vijayakrishna — is eager to arrange a grand wedding for his younger daughter. In one scene, he lovingly declares, 'How much gold do you need? Buy as many sarees as you want! Call all your friends to your wedding. I will conduct your wedding in a grand fashion!'

The teaser also sets up family rivalry, as Keerthi's father gets into a dispute with his brother over a prospective groom — and is visibly overjoyed when the groom's family expresses a preference for Keerthi. However, Keerthi has plans of her own. She tells her grandmother in a defiant tone, 'Your son thinks he is the only stubborn person here. I have the very same blood running in my veins.'

Comedy is woven throughout: in one moment, the father prays, 'O Lord, my brother should get a son-in-law who is even more poverty-stricken than my elder son-in-law.' The teaser closes with Keerthi hurling dried red chillies at a sleeping man, prompting the remark, 'Whoever marries her is done for!' The overall tone promises a lively and emotionally-grounded family entertainer.
