Natural Star Nani is gearing up for his next release, Saripodhaa Sanivaaram, which is scheduled to hit theaters in multiple languages on August 9, 2024. Directed by Vivek Athreya, the film features Priyanka Arul Mohan as the leading lady.

During the film’s pre-release event, Srikanth Odela, the director of Nani’s Dasara and the recent recipient of the Best Debut Director (Telugu) award at the 2024 Filmfare South Awards, made a startling revelation.

While discussing director Vivek Athreya, Odela revealed that when he was under immense pressure from his parents to abandon his filmmaking dreams and take up a regular job, he made the drastic decision to burn his academic certificates. He pointed out that this action, coincidentally, mirrored a scene from Athreya’s film Brochevarevarura. This unexpected revelation left the audience in shock.

On the career front, Srikanth Odela is gearing up for his next big project with Nani, which will begin filming soon. More details about the upcoming film will be revealed shortly.
