Ravi Teja’s upcoming film Irumudi is set for release on 21 August. At the pre-release event, the actor said he watched the film without background music and is confident it will be a blockbuster. He praised the performance of child actress Nakshatra, saying she has a bright future, and called Priya Bhavani Shankar a perfect fit for her role. Director Shiva Nirvana said the story began with a father-daughter bond and the Ayyappa backdrop came later. He cautioned that the film is not light-hearted but an intense thriller, with the final 40 minutes being a gripping human drama. Mythri Movie Makers, which produced the film, said it is an emotional and thrilling commercial entertainer centered on an Ayyappa devotee. The production house also announced plans for another film with Ravi Teja, described as a full-on hilarious mass entertainer reminiscent of his energy in Vikramarkudu. The much-anticipated song Mallepoola Pallaki, featuring around 100 swamis, will appear at a key moment in the film.
