Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja’s upcoming family entertainer Bharta Mahashayulaku Vignapti, directed by Kishore Tirumala and produced by Sudhakar Cherukuri under the SLV Cinemas banner, is gearing up for a grand theatrical release on January 13. Starring Dimple Hayathi and Aashika Ranganath as the female leads, the film has already generated strong buzz with its teaser, trailer, and songs.
Ahead of the release, heroines Aashika Ranganath and Dimple Hayathi interacted with the media and shared interesting insights about the film and their roles.
Aashika Ranganath Speaks
Aashika Ranganath said that she had earlier planned to collaborate with director Kishore Tirumala, but the project didn’t materialise due to unforeseen reasons. Later, when he narrated the story of Bharta Mahashayulaku Vignapti, she instantly connected with it.
“The moment I heard the story, I wanted to play the modern girl’s role. Interestingly, the director had also envisioned me for the same character. Compared to my role in Saamiranga, this character is completely different and will be a refreshing addition to my career.”
Aashika revealed that her character is named Manasa Shetty, a role that today’s young women will easily relate to.
Matching Ravi Teja’s high energy was quite challenging, especially since she is still improving her Telugu.
“Director Kishore Tirumala supported me a lot. He is extremely sensitive and has designed every character with great care, including costumes. He presented my character beautifully on screen.”
Speaking about the film’s theme, she said commercial cinema has evolved:
“Earlier, heroes were shown as flawless. But now, every character has imperfections, and audiences are more interested in such realistic portrayals. Today’s relationships have many conflicts, and the director has handled these aspects in a way that everyone can relate to.”
She praised Ravi Teja as an outstanding performer:
“His comic timing and emotional expressions are brilliant. Working with him has been a joyful experience.”
Comedian Satya plays her PA in the film, a role that promises plenty of laughs.
“Actors like Ravi Teja, Sunil, Vennela Kishore, and Satya have exceptional comic timing. Matching them was definitely a challenge.”
Aashika added that she always strives to choose different roles and assured audiences that this film will offer something fresh.
Producer Sudhakar Cherukuri mounted the film on a lavish scale, including a Spain schedule, making the visuals rich and appealing.
She described Megastar Chiranjeevi visiting the sets during a mass song shoot as a memorable moment.
On her upcoming projects, she shared:
“I’m currently working on Vishwambhara, Sardar 2, and another film titled Adi Naa Pillaraa. I feel fortunate to be working with big stars early in my career.”
Dimple Hayathi Speaks
Dimple Hayathi said she instantly liked the story when director Kishore Tirumala narrated it to her.
“After hearing the script, I felt the role of Balamani, the wife’s character, would be perfect for me. I had already played a modern girl in a Ravi Teja film, so this role felt new and exciting. I was happy that the director also felt the same.”
Revealing that Ravi Teja’s involvement made the project even more special, she said:
“This is my second film with Ravi Teja garu. Working with him is always a pleasure.”
Dimple described her character as strong and independent, crediting the director for crafting it with depth and clarity.
“Appearing as Balamani has been a completely new experience for me.”
She highlighted the careful attention given to costumes:
“The colour palette was chosen according to the character. The songs feature vibrant and colourful outfits, and the visuals are very lively. Girls will definitely relate to this.”
Dimple teased a surprise element in the film:
“There’s a special surprise that audiences should experience on the big screen. Director Kishore Tirumala enacts scenes himself while narrating, and his dialogues are very unique. The comedy is handled in a very sensible way, making the story universally relatable.”She also mentioned the energetic dance numbers, which are already receiving a great response.
Speaking about her bond with Aashika, she said:
“During this film’s journey, Aashika and I became very good friends. We share a wonderful bonding.”
Dimple concluded by sharing a personal note:
“Since childhood, I have been celebrating Sankranti in Chennai with my grandparents, and this festival has always been very special to me.”
