Siva Kanthamaneni, Rashi, and Nandita Swetha headline the eagerly awaited film “Raghava Reddy,” directed by Sanjeev Megoti. The much-anticipated release is set for January 5, 2024, and the excitement was palpable as the makers organized a pre-release event at Prasad Labs on Tuesday. Produced by the esteemed Lightouver Cinemusic banner, led by KS. Sankar Rao, G. Rambabu Yadav, and R. Venkateswara Rao, with T Narasimha Reddy presenting under Space Vision, the film has garnered immense anticipation among fans.
Senior producer C. Kalyan expressed, “Siva Kanthamaneni has broadened the film’s horizons, creating a compelling commercial masterpiece. ‘Raghava Reddy’ boasts impressive songs, skillful direction, and a captivating storyline. I hope Siva Kanthmane continues to rise, akin to how Srihari evolved into a stellar star. As the film hits theaters on January 5, my sincere wish is for the audience to turn it into a resounding commercial success.”
Tummala Prasannakumar added, “Shiva Kanthmaneni has consistently demonstrated meticulous planning in his filmmaking journey. Director Sanjeev Megoti has skillfully blended commercial elements with a gripping narrative in ‘Raghava Reddy.’ Action, faction, love, emotions, and family dynamics—all expertly woven to cater to every audience’s desire. The release date of January 5 holds significance, as the legendary film ‘Gulebakavali,’ starring senior NTR, was also released on this date and became a massive hit. I sincerely hope ‘Raghava Reddy’ follows suit and achieves great success.”
The film’s producer R. Venkateswar Rao shared, “This marks the third film under our banner, and we’ve transitioned from the business sector back to the film industry. With the support of Kalyangaru and Prasannagaru, ‘Raghava Reddy’ is gearing up for release on January 5, and my heartfelt desire is to see it achieve tremendous success.”
Co-producer Sridhar Reddy extended his wishes, saying, “I hope Siva Kanthmaneni achieves significant success with ‘Raghava Reddy.’ His efforts as an actor aim to bring happiness, joy, and excitement to society through movies. My best wishes to Siva Kanthamaneni, Sanjeev garu, and Shankar Rao for creating more exceptional films together.”
Director Sanjeev Megoti expressed optimism, saying, “I believe this year marks a positive turning point for me with the release of ‘Raghava Reddy.’ The film encompasses all the essential commercial elements, presenting a mass hero movie experience. Sivagaru, with his extensive filmography, has delivered a brilliant performance as a criminology professor. The support from our producers, talented cast, and dedicated behind-the-scenes team promises an unforgettable cinematic experience for the audience when ‘Raghava Reddy’ hits theaters on January 5.”
In gratitude, Siva Kanthamaneni said, “Special thanks to Kalyan, Ashok Kumar, and Prasannagari for their unwavering support. I express my gratitude to Venkateshwar Rao, Rambabu Yadav, Shankar Rao, and Ghanta Srinivasa Rao for their invaluable support. With ‘Madhurapudi Gramam Ane Nenu’ selected for the Rajasthan International Film Festival, the excitement is palpable. I believe our film, ‘Raghava Reddy,’ releasing on January 5, will resonate with all sections of the audience.”
