Pawan Kalyan Reveals Why Hari Hara Veera Mallu Is Underrated Ahead of Its Release
Hari Hara Veera Mallu, Pawan Kalyan’s much-awaited first pan-Indian historical action film, is set to have its global theatrical release tomorrow, with special premiere shows beginning tonight. Directed by Jyothi Krishna, the film casts Pawan in a grand, heroic role, and Nidhhi Agerwal stars as the female lead.
️ Pawan Kalyan’s Honest Take
During a recent press interaction, Pawan Kalyan was asked about the relatively low buzz surrounding Hari Hara Veera Mallu compared to his other high-profile films like They Call Him OG and Ustaad Bhagat Singh.
His reply was thoughtful and deeply personal:
“This film is underrated because today’s audience is more attracted to violence and grey-shaded characters. But my heroes are Krishna and Rama. People now lean more toward grey than black and white, that’s why there’s less hype around the film.”
This rare candid moment from the actor-politician sheds light on the shifting preferences in modern cinema and his dedication to telling morally upright, value-driven stories.
Bookings Bounce Back Strong
Despite the initial underwhelming buzz, the situation has drastically improved in the final days leading up to the release. Once Pawan Kalyan began promoting the film, interest surged. Pre-release bookings have skyrocketed, especially across the Telugu-speaking states and major metropolitan centers.
