Karthikeya 2 team was over the moon when they received an invitation from the spiritual organisation ISKCON to promote the film at Vrindavan recently. The lead actors from the film, Nikhil Siddhartha, Srinivasa Reddy and Harsha Chemudu, went to ISKCON, Vrindavan earlier this week and received a grand welcome from spiritual gurus, devotees alike at the religious site. They were praised for their attempt to spread the word about Krishna through the film.

While Nikhil said that neither he nor Srinivas Reddy, Harsha are the leads of the film and called Lord Krishna the project's driving force. He stated they're trying to spread the message of Krishna by releasing the film in 5 languages. "When we received a call to be here at Vrindavan, we felt like it was a message from the God himself," shared an overwhelmed Srinivas Reddy. "I've transformed into a devotee of Sri Krishna and have become closer to the film through its making. This moment is special," added Harsha.

On a funny note, Nikhil even claimed that Srinivas Reddy is more popular among people than him at Vrindavan, given the number of selfie requests he was receiving. The spiritual gurus at the site felt that Mahabharata and Ramayana were not fairy tales but history, adding that a survey in the 1980s had confirmed about a city was submerged under the waters of Dwaraka. Several others spoke of their interest to catch the movie at theatres after watching the teaser.

Anupama Parameswaran plays the female lead in the film that also stars Anupam Kher, Adithya Menon among others. Karthikeya 2 is directed by Chandoo Mondeti and is jointly produced by Abhishek Agarwal Arts and People Media Factory. Karthikeya 2 is expected to release on August 5.
