Vijay and Rashmika together again, and now as a real-life married couple! This is going to bring amazing chemistry on screen. The production scale looks huge with Mythri Movie Makers. September 2026 feels so far away though!

Interesting to see Arnold Vosloo in a Telugu film. Shows how Indian cinema is gaining global recognition. Hope the historical aspects are well-researched and not just glamorized. Looking forward to it.

The behind-the-scenes look is fascinating. It's great to see the hard work that goes into character building, especially for a period piece. Rashmika seems fully committed. Wishing the whole team the best.

Respectfully, I hope the focus remains on the story and not just the star power. Telugu historical dramas have great potential, but sometimes they get lost in hero-worship. The BTS is promising, fingers crossed for a solid script.

A perfect birthday gift for her fans! 🎂 She's come a long way from Kannada cinema. Jayamma looks like a powerful character. Also, a release date in 2026? That's some long-term planning from the makers!
