Hari Hara Veera Mallu: Pawan Kalyan Plays Orphan Raised by Dharma, Confirms Producer
Pawan Kalyan’s Pan-India Debut Gears Up for Grand Release on July 24, 2025
As the release date for Hari Hara Veera Mallu: Part 1—Sword vs. Spirit draws near, new insights into Pawan Kalyan’s character have been officially revealed by the film’s presenter, AM Rathnam. The high-stakes mytho-historical action drama marks Pawan Kalyan’s first true pan-Indian venture, and expectations are running sky-high ahead of its July 24 release.
Pawan Kalyan Plays a Fictional Orphan Raised in a Temple
In a recent interview, AM Rathnam clarified that Pawan Kalyan’s character is entirely fictional and not based on any historical figure. He revealed that the name “Hari Hara” was chosen to reflect a divine duality—blending Vishnu (Hari) and Shiva (Hara)—symbolizing the spiritual depth of the character.
The story begins with Hari Hara being found abandoned during a flood and raised in a temple. As an orphan molded by Dharma, he grows into a fierce warrior who takes on Aurangzeb, defending Sanatan Dharma in an epic clash of ideologies.
Original Storyline and Pan-Indian Appeal
Dismissing earlier rumors that the story is based on real historical figures, AM Rathnam emphasized the film’s originality. Directed by Jyothi Krisna and produced by A. Dayakar Rao under the Mega Surya Productions banner, the film boasts a strong supporting cast, including Bobby Deol, Nidhhi Agerwal, Nassar, Vennela Kishore, and Sunil.
The soundtrack and score are composed by Oscar-winner M.M. Keeravaani, adding further grandeur to this ambitious project.
Hari Hara Veera Mallu will release in multiple languages, including Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada, on July 24, 2025.
