Like Kshemaanga Velli Labhanga Randi, Purushaha will appeal to all sections: Hero Pavan Kalyan<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Pavan Kalyan Battula makes his debut as a hero with the upcoming wholesome family entertainer Purushaha, produced by Battula Koteshwar Rao under the Kalyan Productions banner and presented by Battula Saraswathi. The film is directed by Veeru Vulavala. The cast includes Pavan Kalyan, Sapthagiri, Kasireddy Rajkumar, Rayancha Kokkura, Vishika, and Hasini Sudheer in key roles. Purushaha is set to release on May 22nd. The posters, songs, glimpses, and teaser released so far have all received a very positive response. As part of the film\u2019s promotions, hero Pavan Kalyan shared a few insights with the media.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tell us about your background:<\/span><\/p>\n

We are from Karampudi near Macherla in Palnadu. We have no connection with the film industry. My father works in the construction field. I never do anything he dislikes, and he never forces me to do anything I don\u2019t like.<\/span><\/p>\n

What\u2019s the story behind your name? Whose idea was it for you to enter the industry?<\/span><\/p>\n

My father watched the film Gokulamlo Seetha even before I was born. I was born around the time Thammudu released. He named me Pavan Kalyan. It was always my father\u2019s dream to see me become a hero. During my college days, there were several film-related events, and I too was very drawn to cinema. Since my father also wanted this path for me, I moved toward this field.<\/span><\/p>\n

Did you take formal acting training?<\/span><\/p>\n

I trained in acting under Satyanand sir in Vizag. I lived in the same community where he stays. I trained with him for four months. Sir only teaches- he doesn\u2019t give references. But I learned a lot from him.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why did you choose the story of Purushaha?<\/span><\/p>\n

This project came to us through DOP Satish. Our intent was to offer wholesome entertainment to the audience. That\u2019s why I chose a family-oriented story for my debut film. We made Purushaha in a way that would connect with family audiences. People will walk out of theatres with the satisfaction of having watched a good film.<\/span><\/p>\n

How was it working with senior artists?<\/span><\/p>\n

Purushaha features several senior actors. All of them supported me immensely. Sapthagiri anna and Kasireddy anna, in particular, helped me in every aspect. I could complete this film because of the support from all of them.<\/span><\/p>\n

What are the key highlights of Purushaha?<\/span><\/p>\n

Every character in Purushaha is given equal importance. Audiences thoroughly enjoyed Kshemanga Velli Laabhanga Randi, and similarly, our film will appeal to all sections of viewers. We took great care with every scene. Through this journey, I understood the effort and struggles of film artists.<\/span><\/p>\n

How was your working experience with the director?<\/span><\/p>\n

Veeru anna supported me tremendously. I used to be very introverted. He pulled me out of my comfort zone and helped me perform better. I could do justice to the film only because of his encouragement.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tell us about the support from your sister Saraswathi during the Purushaha journey:<\/span><\/p>\n

My sister Saraswathi is married and has two kids. She is very fond of me and always thinks the best for me. She stood by me in every aspect of Purushaha. Without her support, I wouldn\u2019t have come this far.<\/span><\/p>\n

What genres do you personally like?<\/span><\/p>\n

My friends keep advising me to do action films. But whatever the genre, my goal is to entertain the audience.<\/span><\/p>\n

What would you like to tell the audience about Purushaha? What\u2019s next for you?<\/span><\/p>\n

Everyone who has watched Purushaha so far has appreciated it. They believe it will definitely succeed. Purushaha is a film that the entire family can enjoy together. After its release, I\u2019ll think about my next project.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
