‘Om Namo Venkatesaya’ is all set to hit the screens on February 10th. In the recent press conference, Nagarjuna and K Raghavendra Rao spoke about their experience with the film.
Nagarjuna: “I knew nothing about Hathiram Baba before listening to the script of ‘ONV’. His story blew my mind & it’s a spiritual journey for Me. This is my career-best film. I’m not saying that I have performed brilliantly, but that’s the kind of feeling I have. This is for the first time in my career, I’m free from any tensions at the time of release”.
K Raghavendra Rao: “Many people were unaware of the greatness of Tirumala Hills. We showed what could done & what can’t be done on the hill shrine in ‘Om Namo Venkatesaya’. Keeravani’s Music is the soul of this movie. People used to rave about ‘Annamayya’ climax. From now, they keep talking about ‘ONV’. All the theaters screening ‘Om Namo Venkatesaya’ will turn into the temples of Venkateswara Swamy”.
