Director Anil Ravipudi is known for making films quickly and effectively. Now, he is teaming up with megastar Chiranjeevi for the much-awaited Mega 157, and the shoot is moving at lightning speed—just like a bullet train.
Anil Ravipudi is famous for his fast-paced working style, but that doesn’t mean he compromises on quality. Every scene is shot with clear planning, and he ensures that nothing extra is added or wasted. He even decides scene cuts while watching the monitor on set, showing his precise calculations.
The team recently completed a shooting schedule in Kerala and is working with a clear goal: to wrap up filming in just 75 days. Though many think finishing a Chiranjeevi film so quickly is tough, Anil seems to be doing it with ease and control. His perfect planning has impressed everyone, including Chiranjeevi himself.
Anil aims to release the film for Sankranti 2026, but seeing the speed of work, there is talk that it could be ready by December this year. Even with a star cast that includes Chiranjeevi and Nayanthara, Anil is completing schedules ahead of time.
All the paperwork and pre-production were done in advance. On location, only the required shots are filmed—nothing more, nothing less. His smart work style not only saves time but also benefits the cast and producers.
Chiranjeevi, with over 150 films to his name, is said to be very impressed with Anil’s organised method of working.
With 8 successful films already, Anil Ravipudi seems ready to score his 9th hit this coming Sankranti. Judging by the energy on set, Mega 157 is shaping up to be a sure-shot winner.
