Speaking about the same, actor-producer Akkineni Nagarjuna said, “My well-wishers told me that making ‘Bangarraju’ during the pandemic might prove to be a struggle. But since ‘Soggade Chinni Nayana’ was released for Sankranthi, I was particular about the Sankranthi sentiment. Therefore, braving the Covid-19 pandemic, we went ahead and shot the film in challenging circumstances with the sole aim of bringing ‘Bangarraju’ before the audience for Sankranthi. What makes us glad is that the movie has become a bigger hit than we had expected. ‘Bangarraju’ has been receiving immense love from the OTT audience since it started streaming on ZEE5 on February 18.
