Siva Kantamneni, Raashi, and Nandita Swetha come together in the highly anticipated film “Raghava Reddy,” directed by Sanjeev Megoti. The film, produced under the Lightouver Cinemusic banner by KS. Sankar Rao, G. Rambabu Yadav, and R. Venkateswara Rao, with T. Narasimha Reddy presenting it under Space Vision, has generated immense excitement among fans. The makers recently organized a grand release event, revealing key details, and announced that the film is set to hit theaters on January 5, 2024.

During the event, the cast and crew engaged with the media, with Prasanna Kumar, Producers Council Secretary, commending the film’s production team. He shared, “Venkateswara Rao played a significant role during the industry’s shift from Chennai to Hyderabad. Shankar Rao, Rambabu Yadav, and Venkateshwar Rao collectively crafted ‘Raghava Reddy,’ a film rich in diverse elements and emotions, reminiscent of Balakrishna’s ‘Simha.’ The grandeur of the movie is truly captivating. Small films are the backbone of the industry, surviving alongside the larger productions. It’s crucial for the media to support and uplift these small gems for the industry to thrive.”

Shiva Kanthmaneni, the lead actor, expressed his enthusiasm, stating, “Raghava Reddy is my fourth film, and it showcases three amazing tracks featuring Rashi and Nandita Shweta. The film blends elements of comedy, an engaging interval scene, and a emotionally touching climax. Nandita Shweta’s performance is commendable, and the entire cast has delivered brilliant performances. We anticipate both appreciation and profits with ‘Raghava Reddy,’ and we hope the audience will love the film releasing on January 5.”

Rashi, sharing her thoughts on the film, said, “Having played diverse roles as a heroine, the character in ‘Raghava Reddy’ intrigued me instantly. The role of a mother was a new and interesting challenge, and I particularly enjoyed portraying the character of a daughter in this world. The film releases on January 5, and I look forward to meeting you all again at the success meet.”

Director Sanjeev Megoti clarified the film’s genre, saying, “The title ‘Raghava Reddy’ might create doubt about its genre, but we’ve crafted the film to appeal to a wide audience. The response to the trailer has been positive, and after a hiatus of nine years, directing ‘Raghava Reddy’ has been a fulfilling experience. Siva Kanthamaneni’s portrayal of criminology professor Raghavareddy is stellar, and Rashi has done justice to the role of Devaki. We aim for success with the film’s release on January 5.”
