Exciting to see Raveena Tandon's daughter Rasha Thadani making her Telugu debut! The setup in Tirupati sounds beautiful—monsoon season, temple town, and a love story. G. V. Prakash Kumar's music will elevate it further. Can't wait for July 30! 🌧️💕
Interesting to see a debutant from a famous family. The storyline of friends to lovers with a conflict sounds predictable, but Ajay Bhupathi's track record with intense narratives could make it special. Mohan Babu as antagonist is a solid addition! Hope it delivers.
Finally, Jaya Krishna is making his debut! Nepotism or not, if the boy has talent, he deserves a chance. The technical team is strong—GV Prakash and Jayakrishna Gummadi are top notch. Mohan Babu playing villain will be iconic! Let's see if it lives up to the hype. 🤞
Another star kid debut... I wish they'd discover fresh talent from small towns instead of always relying on family connections. But Ajay Bhupathi is a good director, so maybe the film will be worth it. The Tirupati backdrop sounds promising, at least. 🙄
The combination of GV Prakash's music and Ajay Bhupathi's direction is a killer duo! I loved Mangalavaram's raw energy. Rasha Thadani is gorgeous—hope she acts well too. And Mohan Babu as Venkatappaya Naidu? That's going to be a treat! July
