Anand Deverakonda, Tollywood’s new star kid and younger brother of Vijay Deverakonda, has officially kicked off his next film with a grand pooja ceremony. The as-yet-untitled project, working with the title Production No. 32, is already making waves in the industry for several reasons — an old-school narrative, a fascinating cast, and a good technical team supporting the film. What makes this release more unique is the spiritual affinity it has with the popular web series ’90s’, which won the hearts of many Telugu people.
The occasion was also blessed by ever-mesmerizing Rashmika Mandanna, who bestowed the ceremonial first clap, generating fan frenzy online and off. The inclusion of such a high-profile name at the event was an added layer of hype, even though Rashmika is not a part of the cast. Her action, nevertheless, indicates great camaraderie among the young Tollywood set and a supporting nudge towards Anand’s venture.
An Emotional Sequel and a Role of Depth
This new movie is being directed by Aditya Hasan, who first gained fame with the emotional and heart-wrenching web series ’90s’. The show, which was both celebrated for its nostalgic take on sibling relationships and coming of age in simpler times, drew massive applause from viewers. Now, this new movie is touted to be a spiritual sequel, carrying forward the story of the lead actor Aditya, who was initially played by child artist Rohan Roy.
In this screen follow-up, Anand Deverakonda takes on the role of a grown-up Aditya, delving into his quest for adolescence and adulthood. The producers have kept important characters from the original show — actors Shivaji and Vasuki Anand will play Aditya’s parents again, which will maintain a continuity of emotional feeling and character arc. Viewers of the web series will enjoy this as an engaging follow-up, whereas new viewers will be introduced to a realistic, emotionally layered world.
Sharing screen space with Anand is the versatile Vaishnavi Chaitanya, who broke into the limelight with her role in Baby and is quickly becoming one of the most desired young actresses of Telugu cinema. Her addition as the heroine ensures robust romantic and emotional trajectories, which complement Anand’s character growth throughout the narrative.
Sithara Entertainments and a Robust Technical Crew Join Forces
Sithara Entertainments, which is one of the top production houses of Tollywood, is supporting this emotional project. Famous for content-driven films and mid-budget successes, the banner is reputed to select stories that have a blend of emotion, drama, and entertainment. With this, they are looking to relive the earthy magic of ’90s on the big screen and showcase a story appealing to a broader audience.
Music, which has been an integral part of the original web series, will be scored by none other than Hesham Abdul Wahab, whose lyrical compositions in Hridayam and Kushi have already made an impact in the industry. His music is expected to take the film’s emotional quotient and the nostalgic factor to the next level, adhering to the location and mood that the original web series had set.
The cinematography will be done by Azeem Mohamad, infusing visual charm and raw realism into the frame. His eye will probably capture the dualities of childlike innocence from the past and maturity today, while National Award-winning editor Navin Nooli gets behind the editing console. With such a technically robust crew, the venture is ready to be not just melodious in narrative but visually engaging and sharp in narrative pace as well.
Shoot to Commence Shortly, Release Date to be Revealed
The shoot of the film has its official shoot commencing in the next few weeks. As pre-production processes come close to completion, the team will start releasing important updates such as the final title, posters, and teaser material. The release date will be revealed soon, insiders say, with a mid-2025 release in the picture based on the schedule for shooting.
Considering the momentum Anand Deverakonda has been gaining with back-to-back ventures, this film may potentially be a career-defining one for him. He has already indicated promise through his performances in Middle Class Melodies, Pushpaka Vimanam, and recently Baby. This time, he is entering a story that requires emotional depth, relatability, and transformation — a journey that not only mirrors a character’s growth, but perhaps his own growth as an actor.
A Fresh Narrative in a Star-Filled Industry
With a Tollywood ecosystem ruled by high-octane mass entertainers and pan-India action dramas, Anand Deverakonda’s next film is a welcome dose of grounded storytelling. It finds takers among people who are hungry for slice-of-life films with an emotional core. People who saw the web series ’90s will find more substance in this follow-up, while new audiences are in for a character-driven, relationship-based, and self-discovery-packed film.
The Telugu audience is always one to appreciate stories based on family emotions and natural drama, particularly when supported by good music and strong performances. If this one has the right promotion and marketing at the right time, this film might end up in the hearts of many just like its prequel.
With the team preparing to shoot and promote, all are now looking forward to Anand Deverakonda and how he embodies the beloved Aditya onto the screen. Whether or not the film proves to be a hit may unlock fresh creative avenues for Anand, propelling him deeper into the limelight not only as Vijay Deverakonda’s brother but also as a talented actor looking to carve his own niche.
