Megastar Chiranjeevi’s much-anticipated project, #Mega157, was officially launched on Ugadi with a grand pooja ceremony, sparking immense excitement among fans and film enthusiasts alike. Directed by the Blockbuster Hit Machine Anil Ravipudi, this film will present Chiranjeevi stepping into a full-length humorous role after quite some time.
As we all know, Anil Ravipudi is renowned not only for crafting pure entertainers and delivering blockbuster hits but also for his unique and innovative approach to promoting his films. His distinctive promotional strategies have consistently paid off, as seen with his recent success Sankranthiki Vasthunnam. Now, Anil Ravipudi is bringing that same creativity to the promotion of #Mega157.
In a unique and entertaining promotional video, the #Mega157 team was introduced with a clever and humorous twist, drawing inspiration from the iconic films of Chiranjeevi. The video creatively blended elements of his legendary roles, offering a fun and nostalgic experience for fans while unveiling the gang behind the much-anticipated project.
The video begins with the direction department expressing their excitement at the prospect of seeing Chiranjeevi deliver a performance with impeccable comedic timing. Writers Ajju Mahakali, Tirumala Nag, and Upendra humorously vowed to work like “gems” for the movie, while writer Narayana jokingly declared that he would question every creative decision made by Anil Ravipudi like a Hitler. Executive producer and writer S. Krishna confidently assured that the film would break box office records.
Production designer AS Prakash, who also humorously refers to himself as Mestri, made his entrance, followed by editor Thammiraju, who vowed to cut only the unnecessary scenes. DOP Sameer Reddy joined in, playfully expressing his desire to shoot at jet speed.
Music director Bheems Ceciroleo introduced himself, and in a delightful moment, Chiranjeevi himself sang a few lines from the song Godari Gattu. Producers Sahu Garapati and Sushmita Konidela promised that the audience could expect a blockbuster festival with the movie. Chiranjeevi, with his usual charm, humorously remarked that Sushmita Konidela should never let the family pride slip.
Finally, Anil Ravipudi concluded the promotional video by introducing himself as the Gang Leader, a nod to his style and leadership on the set. “Raffaadiddham…” said he.
This innovative promotional video has set the tone for Mega157, adding an extra layer of excitement and anticipation for what promises to be another blockbuster film in the making.
The movie that brings back Megastar to his forte is aimed for Sankranthi 2026 release.
