Natural Star Nani’s Ante Sundaraniki has celebrated its success meet in Hyderabad on Monday. The entire team attended the event and expressed their excitement about delivering a heartwarming film.

Speaking at the event, Nani spoke very proudly about the film. He said, “Ante Sundaraniki’s success is the team’s collective effort. We are celebrating the blockbuster celebration of ‘Ante Sundaraniki’. However, this celebration is not just a box office number. Today we are celebrating the hearts of the audience. We celebrate the love for our film and the joy of the audience. Time will decide if it is a blockbuster. But the joy in the eyes of those who saw the movie, in terms of their love for ‘Ante Sundaraniki’ already hit the blockbuster. We are celebrating it today. Messages from fans are very satisfying. ‘Ante Sundaraniki’ is a movie that is in the top order of my career. It takes a lot of guts to tell a story like this when there are a lot of easy ways. Those guts are in our director Vivek Athreya, our producers, in me, and everyone in our team. Even after two years, if anyone asks me to name a good Telugu film, Ante Sundaraniki will be one of the two or three names that will be mentioned”.

Nazriya who made her Telugu debut with the film thanked the audience profusely for the success. “I will miss the character of Leela. I thank my entire team and the audience for making it a big hit,” the actress said.

Director Vivek Athreya said, “The 50% credit of Ante Sundaraniki should go to Nani. It is not easy to play such a layered character. Making a film like this gives immense satisfaction. It will be a film I am always proud of. Thanks to my entire team”.

Producer Naveen Yerneni said Ante Sundaraniki is a classic film. “Ante Sundaraniki is a film that gave us a great feeling. A movie that will stay in our banner forever. This is a classic. It is a classic like Jandhyala’s films like Aha Naa Pellanta and Srivariki Premalekha. The congratulatory messages that started on the release day from US Premieres did not stop till now. Thanks to Nani Garu who believed in the story and made the film for us. I think this is the best performance for Nani,” he said.

All set to release on Friday, Telugu movie ‘Ante Sundaraniki’ is ‘Natural Star’ Nani’s second theatrical release in the post-pandemic scenario.

Nani feels that a lighthearted rom-com like ‘Ante Sundaraniki’ will be welcomed by theatre audiences.

“A film like this is much needed at this point of time after watching back-to-back huge action movies and after the pandemic, people need some relief, a breather which is just lighthearted, which will put a smile on you throughout the film and you walk out with a nice feeling. I mean that’s the kind of film we’re all looking for now. Im super happy that it’s coming out now,” Nani said to IANS.

In the movie, Nani is a young Brahmin named Sundar whose dream is to visit the USA at least once in his life. Nazriya Nazim who played his love interest as Leela aims to become a popular photographer. The two different worlds of Sundar and Leela, their love story and the fun in the journey together is depicted interestingly in ‘Ante Sundaraniki’.

While in the past there have been protests by Brahmin organisations over caricaturing and denigrating the community in some Telugu films, Nani who portrays the travails of a Brahmin youth in love with a Christian girl is confident that his movie will not annoy the community.

“Not at all. Because we didn’t exaggerate or mock anyone. Or it’s not a loud kind of comedy. It’s a very realistic approach. And we’re not discussing the religion. We’re discussing people here. So I’m not worried about it at all,” he told IANS.

‘Ante Sundaraniki’ starring Nani, Nazriya Nazim, Fahadh Faasil, is directed by Vivek Athreya and produced by Mythry Movie Makers. Vivek Sagar has composed the music for the movie releasing on June 10, in Telugu, Tamil and Malayalam.

Natural Star Nani’s next film Ante Sundaraniki is releasing this Friday. The film is a rom-com that will appeal to youth. Vivek Athreya is the director and Nazriya is the leading lady. Ante Sundaraniki is carrying good expectations and the makers are pretty confident on the film. The runtime of the film is close to three hours which is haunting everyone. Being an urban rom-com, Ante Sundaraniki should be thoroughly impressive to impress the audience big time as the runtime is lengthy.

Ever since the final runtime is out, there are discussions going on that it would not be an ideal one for a film of such genre. Nani and Nazriya sounded extremely confident on the film’s success. Nani also revealed that there is a surprise element in the movie and the audience would get thrilled on screen. He also said that the runtime of Ante Sundaraniki is not a barrier. The advance sales for the film are decent. Mythri Movie Makers are the producers and all the deals for Ante Sundaraniki are closed long ago. Vivek Sagar composed the music and background score for this romantic entertainer.
