Chennai, June 6 (NationPress) If the latest industry rumors are accurate, director A M Jothi Krisna's highly anticipated film 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu', starring Pawan Kalyan in the lead role, may face another postponement.
The project has been under development for more than five and a half years and was initially scheduled to premiere on June 12 this year. However, this now seems uncertain. It is worth noting that A M Jothi Krisna mentioned to IANS in May that the film was completed and preparations were underway to submit it to the Censor Board for approval.
Jothi Krisna revealed that filming took place over a span of 200 days. The period drama stars Nidhi Aggarwal as the female lead and Bobby Deol portraying Aurangazeb.
"This narrative is set in the 16th century. Bobby Deol embodies Aurangazeb in the movie, which revolves around events during the Mughal era. It draws inspiration from a lesser-known incident of that time. The film intertwines both fact and fiction. Pawan Kalyan takes on a Robin Hood-like role, portraying a thief," Jothi Krisna explained.
While some media outlets claimed that the production team had officially announced the film's postponement, neither director A M Jothi Krisna nor producer A M Rathnam has confirmed this on their social media accounts. The film's social media handle also refrained from releasing any statement on the delay.
Sources suggest that the filmmakers conveyed their decision to delay the release, stating that despite their best efforts, the film would not premiere on June 12 as planned. They described this choice as difficult yet necessary. Reports also indicated that the creators plan to unveil a new trailer soon, which will include the revised release date.
The film's soundtrack is composed by the legendary M.M. Keeravaani. Notably, Keeravaani recently launched the third single from the movie, 'Asura Hananam', at a significant event in Hyderabad last month.
Cinematography is handled by Manoj Paramahamsa and Gnanashekar V.S., while production design is led by Thota Tharani. The film's editing is done by the acclaimed National Award winner K L Praveen.
In addition to Pawan Kalyan, Nidhi Aggarwal, and Bobby Deol, 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' will feature a talented ensemble cast including Nassar, Sathyaraj, Thalaivasal Vijay, Raghu Babu, Subbaraju, and Sunil, among others.
