Talking about director Shashank, Karthikeya expressed his happiness about becoming a producer for his project. “Finally, I’m so so happy and I’m happy I could be that producer for you, be there for you and get your vision on screen,” he shared.
He also spoke proudly about the film’s climax and hero introduction. Karthikeya hinted that the final 30 to 40 minutes of the movie would be especially exciting for the audience. “I think you’ll have a really, really good time,” he mentioned while talking about the film.
The young producer also thanked the writing and production teams for supporting Shashank and helping bring his vision to the screen. He remembered several members of his production team and assistant directors who worked day and night for the project.
One of the most emotional parts of the speech came when Karthikeya spoke about the love and support he has received from his family, friends and fans. He thanked his mother, father SS Rajamouli and other family members for always standing beside him. He said that he never wants to tarnish Rajamouli’s name but wants to take his name to the next level.
The event became even more special because of Jr NTR’s presence. NTR shares a close bond with the Rajamouli family, and his appearance at Karthikeya’s first production event was seen as a memorable moment. Karthikeya appeared deeply moved by the love shown by NTR and the audience.
He ended by hoping that he would make everyone proud. “I really, really hope I make you proud. Love you. Thank you,” he told the audience.
