Both actors took to social media to share their excitement about the project. Venkatesh described the film as a “superb entertainer,” adding that working with Ravipudi feels like “coming back home, full of fun.” Kalyan Ram echoed the sentiment, calling the collaboration a special one and expressing confidence in the film’s entertainment quotient.

An action-packed announcement teaser released alongside the news has further fueled fan enthusiasm. The visuals showcase Venkatesh in a commanding cop avatar, while Kalyan Ram appears in a contrasting casual look, hinting at a dynamic on-screen pairing. The teaser promises Ravipudi’s signature blend of action, humour, and family-friendly entertainment.

The film is expected to go on floors soon, with further details regarding the cast, music, and production team to be announced in the coming months. With a festive release window and a proven director-actor combination, the Sankranti 2027 multi-starrer is already shaping up to be one of the most awaited Telugu releases of the year.
