Audiences are encouraging new stories and they deserve something exciting, he stated. “I was very impressed with the story. When I asked the team about the female lead, I wondered if they were referring to ‘Baahubali’ Anushka after all. I was sailing in the ship in my dreams.” Naveen called her a brilliant actress and expressed he was very excited to work with her.

The chemistry between the characters is crucial to the film and this is the director Mahesh’s passion project, Naveen shared that the entire team has solely focused on this film over two years. While asking audiences to watch the film in theatres on September 7, he spoke of a moving incident where he found immense love from Telugu audiences.

“A critical patient had watched Jathi Ratnalu thrice to deviate herself from pain and said she forgot all worries once she met me. This love is priceless. I may not have a Godfather but so many audiences are backing me as if I belong to their family,” he thanked crowds.

The screenplay is novel, it is a clean, modern entertainer that’ll appeal to youngsters and family crowds, Naveen mentioned. He said Krishna as a child had the gift of making people happy wherever he went. On Krishnashtami (September 7), we hope to be the little Krishna spreading joy in your lives, he added.
