The pre-release event for Nani and Priyanka Mohan’s highly-anticipated pan-India action drama, Saripodhaa Sanivaaram, was held tonight in a grand manner. Speaking at the event, Nani started off saying that he will talk less about Saripodhaa Sanivaaram, as he has been talking a lot about the movie in various interviews over the past few days. Nani’s speech was an earnest tribute to the film’s cast and crew members.

Nani hailed Saripodhaa Sanivaaram’s director Vivek Athreya’s dedication and hard work. “Vivek Athreya became a father to a baby boy during the making of this movie. His son is named after Lord Shiva, and you will all witness Vivek Athreya’s ‘Shiva Thandavam’ when the film releases in cinemas. Talking about the film’s music composer, Jakes Bejoy, Nani said that Jakes has elevated several scenes with his riveting score. “Carry one extra sack of papers to theaters to celebrate Saripodhaa Sanivaaram,” the Natural Star told his fans.

“Danayya garu enjoys the process of making movies, and that’s why interesting stories and projects like Ninnu Kori, RRR, OG, and Saripodhaa Sanivaaram fell in his kitty,” said Nani about his producer. Nani said that Priyanka Mohan joined the project as his heroine, but she became a good friend during the shoot.

Finally, Nani was all praise for his nemesis, SJ Suryah. “Vivek Athreya and I had a vision for Saripodhaa Sanivaaram’s Dayaa, and SJ Suryah garu surpassed our vision with his performance. SJ Suryah garu will be discussed ahead of us after Saripodhaa Sanivaaram releases in cinemas on August 29,” said Nani. Both Nani and SJ Suryah went on to recreate the epic “Pothaaru.. Motham Pothaaru” face-off at the end of the event.
