The Core Concept: Where Pawanism Meets Agricultural Pride
Directed by debutant Dhanraj Lekkala, Hey Chikittha anchors its script on true incidents from his native village. Speaking about the driving force behind the film's unique premise, the director shared his deep-rooted inspiration:
"I am an uncompromising, die-hard fan of Power Star Pawan Kalyan. The entire story of Hey Chikittha revolves around five passionate Pawan Kalyan fans in a rural village. Every major film of his carries a strong social message hidden within its commercial beats. Inspired by that philosophy, I have woven a three-hour commercial entertainer that strongly advocates for our local farmers."
Veteran actor ETV Prabhakar, who plays a pivotal character in the film, added that the movie masterfully connects the absolute mass energy of 'Pawanism' with the vital message of Raithe Raju (Farmer is King), striking a perfect chord for modern audiences.
High Praise from C. Kalyan and an Ultra-Fast 21-Day Schedule
Prominent producer C. Kalyan attended as a chief guest to support the team, highly praising the work of his disciple, cinematographer-producer Garudavega Anji. He extended warm wishes to young leading lady Divija Prabhakar (daughter of actor Prabhakar), noting that her effortless screen transformation makes her look like a powerhouse performer to watch out for.
In an incredible logistical feat for independent regional cinema, the team managed to execute and wrap up the entire principal photography within a single continuous schedule of just 21 days.
Hero Abhinav Manikanta and actress Divija credited Anji’s razor-sharp dual execution as both the producer and cinematographer for finishing the shoot without a single rupee of wastage. Backed by hit tracks composed by Charan Arjun that capture authentic Telangana rural culture, Hey Chikittha is gearing up to be a wholesome, thought-provoking commercial entertainer this July.
