The cast and crew of the film Raju Weds Rambai celebrated their early success in a joyful and traditional way in Ameerpet. Instead of a regular press meet, they chose to celebrate on the streets of Hyderabad, where the director and team performed a lively dappu dance, drawing attention from locals and fans.
Director Saailu Kampati led the celebration by playing the dappu himself, a traditional drum widely used in Telangana festivals. The spontaneous performance created a cheerful atmosphere as passers-by stopped to watch, clap, dance and record videos. The street soon turned into a mini celebration with fans cheering for the film.
The director expressed his happiness and thanked the audience for supporting their small film with big emotions. He said that Raju Weds Rambai is close to his heart because it reflects real village life, culture, and the spirit of love. The film is based on a rural backdrop and highlights Telangana traditions, making the dappu celebration even more meaningful.
Lead actor Akhil Raj and actress Vaishnavi also joined the celebration. Akhil Raj shared that he learnt the Telangana dialect and even basic dappu steps to make his role more natural. He said it felt special to celebrate success, in Ameerpet, in the same traditional way shown in the Raju Weds Rambai film.
Videos of the celebration went viral on social media, with many fans appreciating the team’s unique way of connecting with the public. Instead of fancy indoor events, they chose a street celebration that felt fresh, real and rooted in culture.
The film’s music, local language flavour and emotional story have attracted both city and village audiences. With positive word of mouth, Raju Weds Rambai is gaining more public attention day by day.
The filmmakers say they will continue to celebrate with the audience in different cities, keeping the dappu spirit alive.
