Anaganaga Oka Raju Pre-Release Event Held in Grand Style
“Come to theatres on January 14. Bringing you a perfect festival entertainer is our responsibility,” says hero Naveen Polishetty
Set to arrive as a true festive entertainer this Sankranthi, Anaganaga Oka Raju is gearing up to entertain audiences in a big way. Starring Star Entertainer Naveen Polishetty, who has earned a special place in viewers’ hearts with three consecutive blockbusters, the film is produced by Suryadevara Naga Vamsi and Sai Soujanya under the banners of Sithara Entertainments and Fortune Four Cinemas, and presented by Srikara Studios.
Directed by debutant Mari, the film features Meenakshi Chaudhary as the female lead, with Mickey J Meyer composing the music. From the very beginning, the film’s promotional material has stood out for its freshness and creativity. Scheduled for a grand theatrical release on January 14, 2026, the recently released trailer has doubled expectations.
Ahead of its release, the pre-release event was held grandly on Monday evening at Kakatiya Government College, Hanumakonda, amidst massive fanfare and youthful enthusiasm.
‘Andhra to Telangana’ Song Launched
A special highlight of the event was the launch of the film’s third song, ‘Andhra to Telangana’, composed by Mickey J Meyer. The previously released songs ‘Bheemavaram Balma’ and ‘Raju Gari Pelliro’ have already become popular among listeners.
With its energetic composition, catchy lyrics penned by Chandrabose, and lively vocals by Sameera Bharadwaj and Dhanunjay Seepana, ‘Andhra to Telangana’ is set to join the hit list. The line “Andhra to Telangana… nuvvu rammante nenu raanaa” has already struck a chord with audiences.
Naveen Polishetty: “Audiences Are My Biggest Strength”
Speaking at the event, Naveen Polishetty said:
“The pre-release event of Jathi Ratnalu also happened in this Warangal region, and celebrating Anaganaga Oka Raju here again makes me extremely happy. During Agent Sai Srinivasa Athreya, we were initially given just ten shows. In such circumstances, you turned it into a big hit purely through word-of-mouth.
Audiences market my films better than anyone else. My heartfelt thanks to everyone who carries my films on their shoulders. The love you’ve given me and the three successes you’ve gifted me have filled me with tremendous energy. I wanted to return that energy with double the entertainment—and that’s how Anaganaga Oka Raju was born.”
He further added:
“We’ve watched the film multiple times and also screened it for people outside the team. Everyone laughed non-stop and got emotionally moved. They even stood up and applauded after the film ended. That response gave us immense confidence.
This film is a two-year journey for us. If outsiders enjoyed it so much, I’m confident families will enjoy it even more during the festival. Come with your family and friends, celebrate together, and create a festive atmosphere in theatres. The energy and entertainment you expect from my films are fully present here, along with beautiful emotional drama.”
Concluding his speech, Naveen said:
“Book your tickets and come to theatres on January 14. Delivering a true festival film is our responsibility. Though I don’t come from a film family, I have countless families supporting me. I’ll keep trying to entertain you till my last breath.
Chiranjeevi garu has already set a festive energy in theatres, and with Anaganaga Oka Raju, we’ll continue that tradition. Releasing my film alongside movies of my favourite heroes—Chiranjeevi garu, Ravi Teja garu, and Prabhas garu—makes this even more special.”
Meenakshi Chaudhary: “Celebrate Sankranthi with Laughter”
Meenakshi Chaudhary, addressing the gathering, said:
“Though I’m not feeling well today, I didn’t want to miss meeting you all. Last Sankranthi, you showered so much love on my character ‘Meenu,’ and I hope you’ll give the same love to my character Charulatha this time.
I’m eagerly waiting for this film’s release, just like you. Sithara Entertainments feels like family to me. Working with director Mari was a wonderful experience, and I wish him great success with his debut film.
Naveen garu has impeccable comic timing, and I learned so much from him. His passion and dedication to cinema are truly inspiring. Mickey J Meyer has delivered fantastic music. Please watch Anaganaga Oka Raju with your family on January 14 and celebrate Sankranthi with joy and laughter.”
Director Mari: “A Perfect Festival Entertainer”
Director Mari said:
“First and foremost, I owe everything to Naveen garu for giving me this opportunity. I’m forever grateful to him. Thanks to Anudeep garu for introducing me to Naveen, and heartfelt thanks to Sithara Entertainments for believing in me.
This film has turned out wonderfully. It’s a perfect festival entertainer. If you liked the trailer, the entire film maintains that same energy. Jokes land in every scene, and families can enjoy it together.
Once you enter the theatre, you’ll forget all your worries and laugh wholeheartedly for two hours. Please come with your family on January 14 and enjoy.”
Guests Extend Best Wishes
West Warangal MLA Nayani Rajender Reddy expressed confidence in the film’s success and wished for the victory celebrations to also be held in Hanumakonda.
The event was hosted by popular anchor Suma Kanakala, whose energetic anchoring kept the atmosphere lively throughout.
