\u2018Raakaasaa\u2019 releasing on April 3 will be thoroughly entertaining \u2013 Niharika Konidela at Pre-Release Event<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

The film \u201cRaakaasaa\u201d, produced by Niharika Konidela in association with Umesh Kumar Bansal under the Pink Elephant Pictures banner and presented by Zee Studios, is directed by Manasa Sharma. Sangeeth Shobhan and Nayan Sarika play the lead roles. The glimpses, teaser, trailer, and songs released so far have impressed audiences. The movie is set to release on April 3. Ahead of the release, a grand pre-release event was held on Monday.<\/span><\/p>\n

Niharika Konidela<\/span> said, “It gives me immense joy to collaborate with Zee Studios and Divya garu.” Earlier, we produced a YouTube series titled Mad House, and it was during that time I first came across Manasa Sharma garu\u2019s writing. I later met her in person; she is someone who speaks very little, yet is constantly immersed in deep thought. She lives and breathes cinema and storytelling 24\/7. I strongly believe Manasa garu is destined to reach greater heights. I take great pride in introducing talents like Manasa garu, Mahesh garu, and Yadhu Vamsee garu. When we were making Committee Kurrollu, many questioned why we were working with 11\u201315 newcomers. During Rakasa, people asked why we were attempting something different instead of sticking to a safe path. Now, with Bhari, they question why we are working with family members. People will always have something to say but I will continue doing what I love.<\/span><\/p>\n

With every project, I learn something new. To me, the Konidela family and the Pink Elephant family are equally important. I am grateful to my parents for trusting me and giving me the freedom to pursue my passion. Mayam Ramesh garu has been a strong support system from the very beginning. Anudeep Dev garu is an exceptionally talented musician. Raju garu\u2019s visuals always receive immense appreciation. Watching Vijay Master on set feels like seeing my own father. Anwar Ali garu goes far beyond his role as an editor, taking on multiple responsibilities.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is because of my father that I have met so many wonderful people Getup Srinu being one of them. He takes great care of me. Nayan Sarika is truly special and a wonderful person. Sangeeth is a rising star, and he deserves a major share of the credit for the success of RaaKaaSaa. We made this film with complete honesty and hard work, giving it our all to deliver a quality entertainer. My dream is that everyone associated with Pink Elephant should own a house, a car, and enjoy life with their families. Rakasa, releasing on April 3rd, is a complete entertainer from start to finish,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sangeeth Shobhan<\/span> said, \u201cLast April, Manasa garu, Niharika garu, and I took a picture together and shared it on Instagram.” Now, our film is all set to release on April 3rd. From last year itself, we were determined to come before the audience with a truly good film. Once the movie releases, I am confident that everyone will be talking about Raju garu\u2019s visuals and Anudeep garu\u2019s music. It was because of Mahesh garu that I got the opportunity to work on Oka Chinna Family Story. As a director, Mahesh garu is all set to deliver a blockbuster with Itlu Arjuna. We shot a large portion of the film during winter nights, and I sincerely thank every artist who supported us throughout this journey. Nayan Sarika is immensely talented, and it was a pleasure working with her. Getup Srinu garu is a wonderful human being. Niharika Konidela garu is a very sensitive person who is deeply passionate about cinema.<\/span><\/p>\n

I share a great bond with Manasa garu ever since Oka Chinna Family Story. She is someone who wants the audience to do more than just watch the film she wants them to take it home, cherish it, and feel that it has done complete justice to the money they spent. She holds the audience in the highest regard. We are confident that we have made a good film. Rakasa will be worth every single penny the audience spends. It is releasing on April 3rd, and I urge everyone to watch it it will definitely not disappoint. We will continue striving to make meaningful and entertaining cinema. Also, our film Biker, produced by UV Creations and Sharwanand anna, is releasing on the same day. I hope audiences watch both films and make them successful,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Nayan Sarika<\/span> said, \u201cThis is my third project with Niharika\u2019s Pink Elephant Pictures.” My journey in cinema began with Hello World, and working with Niharika Konidela’s has always brought me good luck. I\u2019m truly happy to be collaborating with her once again on Rakasa. I would like to thank Ramesh garu for taking such great care of all of us. Manasa Sharma has immense clarity and focus when it comes to filmmaking. On set, Getup Srinu garu keeps the atmosphere lively and entertaining at all times. I share a very special rapport with Sangeeth something I haven\u2019t experienced with any other co-actor. I\u2019m confident that everyone will enjoy Rakasa. Please watch our film on April 3rd and support us,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Director Manasa Sharma<\/span> said, \u201cNiharika garu has truly been our lucky charm.\u201d At Pink Elephant Pictures, directing a series often leads to an opportunity to helm a feature film. After my project Bench Life, I was given the chance to direct Rakasa, and I owe my current position to Niharika garu. Raju garu brings immense passion to his work, and it was a wonderful experience collaborating with Anudeep garu. I would also like to thank Mahesh garu for partnering with me on the writing, and Anwar garu for his constant support throughout the process. It was a joy working with Nayan. I am grateful to Getup Srinu garu, Brahmaji garu, and Tanikella Bharani garu for their encouragement and support during this journey. Sangeeth Shobhan has been a great strength to me. \u201cOur film is all set to release on April 3rd, and I sincerely request everyone to watch it,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Yadhu Vamsee<\/span> said, \u201cNiharika garu invested a remarkable \u20b99 crores in me for Committee Kurrollu. I was truly shocked when I came to know the budget of Rakasa. Niharika garu is her own biggest strength and a true inspiration to many young women. For newcomers and talented individuals, Niharika garu and Pink Elephant Pictures have become a go-to platform. It is because of her belief and support that RaaKaaSaa has reached this level.<\/span><\/p>\n

Music Director Anudeep garu is sure to scale even greater heights in the future. Anwar garu has worked tirelessly, day and night, for this film. Vijay Master is one of the biggest strengths of the movie. Manyam Ramesh always appreciates Raju\u2019s visuals. Sangeeth Shoban has a unique sense of comedic timing, and Nayan Sarika garu looks absolutely stunning on screen. Rakasa, which is releasing on April 3rd, will surely leave audiences thoroughly entertained and laughing,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Getup Srinu<\/span> said, I request everyone to come together with their families and watch our RaaKaaSaa film. The audience will surely feel that every single penny they spend is truly worth it. Talent can only shine when given the right opportunity, and I would like to thank Niharika garu for consistently encouraging and providing such opportunities to new talent. Manasa garu is a director with great clarity and sensitivity. Anudeep Dev garu is an exceptional music director. It was a pleasure working with Nayan. My journey with Sangeeth began with Oka Chinna Family Story, and I was amazed by his talent. He is an actor who can excel across every emotion and every genre.

Music Director Anudeep Dev<\/span> said, \u201cI would like to thank my entire team for supporting me in delivering the music for Rakasa. All the artists have performed wonderfully in the film. I did not compose music separately just for comedy; everything came together organically, and the humor works naturally. I would like to thank Ramesh garu for constantly pushing us to give our best and keeping us on our toes throughout the process. It was a great experience working with Manasa garu. Sangeeth is a very talented actor. I am grateful to Niharika garu for giving me this opportunity. Rakasa, which releases on April 3rd, is going to be a big hit,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n

I sincerely hope Rakasa becomes a massive success.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

DOP Raju Edurolu<\/span> said, \u201cFor Rakasa, most of the shoot took place during the nights. This is my fourth project with Niharika garu, and Ramesh garu has always been a great support to me.
