Visakhapatnam: Power Star Pawan Kalyan’s upcoming period action drama Hari Hara Veera Mallu is scheduled for a worldwide release on July 24. Ahead of the release, a grand pre-release event was held on Wednesday at Novotel Hotel, located opposite RK Beach in Visakhapatnam.
The event drew a massive crowd of fans and film enthusiasts, with Pawan Kalyan being the key attraction. His speech at the venue received a rousing response, particularly for his indirect remarks that many interpreted as a rebuttal to recent criticism by Andhra Pradesh Minister R.K. Roja.
Addressing the gathering, Pawan Kalyan stated, “Those who remain like frogs in a well cannot understand my value.” He went on to explain that his father was a government employee and frequently transferred, which resulted in him spending parts of his childhood in various towns. “Wherever my father was posted, I grew up there,” he said, defending his connection to multiple places across the state.
మా అన్నయ్య, మా వదిన నన్ను నమ్మారు. అందుకే నా శిరస్సు వాళ్ళ పాదాల దగ్గర పెట్టాను.
నాకు ధైర్యాన్ని నేర్పించిన వ్యక్తి సత్యానంద్ గారు. నాకు జీవిత పాఠాలు నేర్పారాయన.

The comments are being viewed by fans as a counter to Roja’s recent criticism, in which she alleged that Pawan Kalyan claims every town he visits as his hometown. The Minister’s remarks had sparked a political exchange, and Wedneys day’s statement by the actor-politician is seen as his response on a public platform.
The film Hari Hara Veera Mallu, directed by Krish Jagarlamudi, is set in a historical backdrop and features Nidhhi Agerwal as the female lead. The film marks Pawan Kalyan’s return to the big screen after a long gap, and expectations are high among his fans and the Telugu film industry.
