‘Jorugaa Husharugaa’, starring Viraj Ashwin of ‘Baby’ fame in the lead, is about love, family and career. Starring Pujita Ponnada as the heroine, the youthful family entertainer is directed by Anu Prasad. Producer Nireesh Thiruveedula of Shikhara & Akshara Arts LLP is positive about the result of the movie, which is going to grace the theatres worldwide on December 15.
Ahead of the film’s release, the makers hosted a grand pre-release event in Hyderabad on Monday.
Speaking on the occasion, director Mallidi Vashishta of ‘Bimbisara’ fame, who attended the event as the chief guest, said, “Producer Nireesh believed in a new director. Viraj, who acted in a cult blockbuster this year in the form of ‘Baby’, is going to score another blockbuster with ‘Jorugaa Husharugaa’. Telugu heroines have been featured in Viraj’s movies. And if this continues, it will be even better. Bekkem Venugopal is called a savior but he is a warrior. He anchors smallfilms well. That is why he is a super hit producer. All the best to the team, here is wishing this movie a super hit.”
MLC Ramesh Yadav, who attended as another guest, wished the film box-office success.
Bekkem Venugopal said, “By supporting small films, I have thrived in this industry. Nireesh is a passionate producer who wants to produce more and more meaningful films. Viraj, who surprised everyone with ‘Baby’ and became known as the best performer, will get another success with this film. Everyone who has worked on this film has given their best. The family drama is going to impress the audience. The scenes between father and son will stand out.”
Music director Anup Rubens, who attended the event, wished the movie team all the best.
Viraj said, “This is a very good family entertainer that everyone can enjoy and relate to. We have done a special song about weavers and it will definitely strike a chord with the audience. I saw their lifestyle very closely during the shoot. I will be seen as Santhosh, a youngster who comes from a family of weavers. My character will surely connect with everyone. More such good films should be made in Telugu. I thank everyone who has been supporting me. I am also eagerly waiting for this film’s release in theatres this Friday.”
Sai Kumar said, “We are dedicating this film to the weavers out there. I am lucky to have got to act as a weaver. Director Anu Prasad has shown the weavers of Pochampalli by conceiving touching scenes. Viraj, Anu and Nireesh are the three pillars of this film. The unseen fourth lion is Bekkam Venugopal garu.” Sai Kumar also suggested that Viraj should score commercial success once again after ‘Baby’.
Sohel said, “I still remember Bekkem garu’s words that the young generation needs to be supported. I am here to lend my support to Viraj with that intention in mind. The trailer of this film is solid. Even though it is a small film, the production values are competent. This film is like ‘Baby’. I also want Viraj to be successful and earn more fame.”
Thiruveer said, “Viraj has been selecting meaty subjects. All the best to all the team.”
Sudigali Sudheer thanked the guests and said, “I want another blockbuster for Viraj. I want the producer to mint loads of money and the director to earn a good name. Watch the movie on December 15 in theaters near you. If you like it, spread the word. This is a family film with comedy, emotions and content.”
Pujita Ponnada said, “This film is like a good Ugadi Pachhadi. It has all the flavors, from comedy to moving emotions. It also has youth-filled romance and everyone will like it.”
Producers Council President Damodara Prasad said, “This film deserves to be successful. Producer Nireesh should make more films in the future. Senior artistes like Sai Kumar acting in this film will be a plus. All the best to you all.”
Film director Anu Prasad said, “This is my first film. The experience of working in five films has been gained by doing this one film. I got this opportunity through music director Praneeth. Thanks to Viraj and Pujita for accepting the story. Producer Nireesh treated me like a brother and supported me very well. Cinematographer Mahi has given beautiful visuals. We cannot forget the help provided by Bekkem Venugopal in ensuring a solid release.”
Producer Nireesh said, “Director Anu Prasad has shot whatever he had in mind and as per his narration to me. He will go on to become a good director in the future. I am proud to have worked with him regardless of the commercial outcome of this movie. Sai Kumar doing our project has helped us more. He gave his 100%. Thank you, everyone, be it the artists or the technicians. Bekkem Venugopal’s contribution to the release of the film is unforgettable.”
