Bandham Telugu Serial – E801 – 21st Aug

Prolific Telugu producer Dil Raju has his sights set on a big release during the upcoming Sankranti season. While his pan-Indian project with Ram Charan directed by Shankar faces delays, Raju is moving forward with a new film starring Venkatesh.

This will be the third collaboration between Venkatesh, acclaimed director Anil Ravipudi, and Dil Raju. Their previous ventures, “F2” and “F3”, were both commercially successful, solidifying the trio’s successful partnership.

Details suggest that the script for the untitled Venkatesh starrer has been finalized and filming is expected to begin in June 2024. Given Anil Ravipudi’s reputation for meticulous planning and efficient execution, the production is anticipated to be completed within six months. This timeline aligns with Dil Raju’s vision of releasing the film during the lucrative Sankranti season of 2025.

Venkatesh is currently occupied with the second season of the popular Netflix series “Rana Naidu”. He is expected to transition to the new film directed by Ravipudi by the end of June.

While Ravipudi has showcased his versatility with the serious film “Bhagavanth Kesari”, it appears he is returning to his signature comedic style for this collaboration with Venkatesh. This reunion has generated excitement amongst fans, eager to see what the successful trio will deliver in their third outing.

Dil Raju’s upcoming film with Venkatesh and Anil Ravipudi signifies a strategic move to capitalize on the Sankranti season. With a well-defined script, a proven director known for his speed, and a popular actor, the project has the potential to be a major commercial success.
