Director Krish, Pawan Kalyan bond over a script reading session of Hari Hara Veera Mallu, shoot to resume in 2022

Even while Pawan Kalyan's next release Bheemla Nayak, scheduled to hit theatres on January 12, 2022, is in the last leg of shoot, the star has his hands full for the next year with consecutive scheduels of two other films. Of the two, he'll first wrap up Hari Hara Veera Mallu, a periodic drama directed by Krish, based on the popular outlaw Veera Mallu, where he's paired opposite Niddhi Agerwal. He'll shoot for the masala potboiler Bhavadeeyudu Bhagat Singh, produced by Mythri Movie Makers, with filmmaker Harish Shankar later. 

Meanwhile, director Krish posted a new update about Hari Hara Veera Mallu today. Sharing a picture where he and Pawan Kalyan are engaged in an intense discussion, with the latter dressed in a comfy white dhoti at his residence, Krish wrote, "An amazing day of Script reading session with one and only #HariHaraVeeraMallu. Gearing up to commence an exciting schedule in the new year." The film has completed nearly 40% of its shoot and is expected to wrap up shoot by the early half of 2022. 

Hari Hara Veera Mallu, slated to release in five languages (Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam), has music by MM Keeravaani while VS Gnanashekar cranks the camera. A Dayakar Rao is producing the film under Mega Surya Productions with ace producer AM Rathnam as the presenter. Sai Madhav Burra is penning the dialogues for the prestigious project. Jacqueline Fernandez, who was initially cast in the role of Mughal empress Roshanara in the film, has been reportedly replaced by actress Nargis Fakhri. Arjun Rampal is expected to play a key character as well.
