Chiru's Humour Lights Up Pre-release Of Waltair Veerayya

Chiranjeevi heaps praise on the entire cast and crew of 'Waltair Veerayya' at the pre-release

Waltair Veerayya is gearing up for its grand theatrical release on January 12, 2023. The movie features both Megastar Chiranjeevi and Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja. The team held a pre-release event at the Andhra University campus, Vizag, yesterday, January 9, 2023. 

Megastar Chiranjeevi spoke at length during the event about his experience with ‘Waltair Veerayya’ right from the narration to the completion. Chiranjeevi started off by expressing his love for Vizag and the Waltair region. He said, “I love Vizag and wish to construct a holiday home here. I've already purchased land in Bheemili. I believe I will be a vizagite like the rest of you.”

He then expressed his love for director KS Ravindra (Bobby) and talked about how he accepted the script in just one sitting. He remarked, “After one- and- half hour of narration, I said okay to Waltair Veerayya script in the first sitting. I believe the films I approved in the first sitting became the biggest blockbusters of my career. The films for which I suggested changes or anything ended up doing okay at the box office… I believed in Bobby’s vision, and he worked night and day tirelessly to make it a seamless reality. He spent sleepless nights in the editing room. I kept telling him it’s okay, the film came out very well. However, he didn’t stop until he was fully satisfied… I believe he is not my fan, but I am his.”

The versatile actor made a light-hearted comment about Shruti Haasan’s absence at the event. Talking about her trip to Ongole for Veera Simha Reddy pre-release event, he remarked “I wonder what she ate at Ongole or if she was threatened. She fell sick and couldn’t make it here.”

He also heaped praises on Ravi Teja, “Raviteja’s character will enter in the second half, and the film goes to the next level with his entry. The scenes between us and emotion will impress everyone.”

Finally he concluded with, “I wish both films Waltair Veerayya and Veera Simha Reddy will be blockbusters to Mythri Movie Makers.”
