Rustic Roots, Pure Melodies & Cross-Generational Appeal: Team Premane Oorilo Unveils Soulful Single with Kamakshi Bhaskarla Ahead of September 25 Release!
At a time when high-octane actioners and heavy VFX spectacles dominate theatrical schedules, simple, grassroots love stories offer a comforting breath of fresh air. Readying to tap into that nostalgic charm is Premane Oorilo, a bilingual romantic drama written and directed by National Award-winning filmmaker Manoj Kumar.
Jointly produced by Chandu Srinivas, seasoned distributor-producer Suresh Kondeti, and Mamatha Devendra M under the banners of Maharatna Productions, SK Pictures, and Vanilla Entertainments, the film stars Shriram, Ramika Shivu, Thapaswini Poonacha, and veteran actor Rangayana Raghu in central roles.
Building momentum toward its theatrical release on September 25, 2026, the makers hosted a musical launch press meet in Hyderabad, graced by actress Kamakshi Bhaskarla as the special guest alongside the cast, crew, and senior media veterans.
"Rooted in Purity": Kamakshi Bhaskarla Extends Heartfelt Support
Appreciating the film's rustic identity, actress Kamakshi Bhaskarla expressed her admiration for the project's traditional visual and acoustic warmth:
*"The title 'Premane Oorilo' carries an instant sweetness. The teaser featuring Srikanth garu's voice-over caught my attention earlier, and the devotional-tinted melody launched by Tanikella Bharani garu was equally moving.
The lead cast looks vibrant and grounded on screen. I thank Suresh garu for inviting me to support this sincere team. I wholeheartedly wish Chandu Srinivas garu enormous success on his debut production. May this film bring lasting recognition to every technician and artist who worked on it, and healthy profits to the producers who took the leap."*

"Echoes of Premisthe and Journey": Suresh Kondeti's Confident Conviction
Known across Telugu states for backing emotionally devastating and culturally resonant love stories, producer Suresh Kondeti shared why this film changed his mind:
-
A Shift in Perspective: "I usually advise newcomers, including Chandu, to tread carefully before diving into film production. But the moment I sat down and watched the rushes of 'Premane Oorilo', my stance shifted completely. It carried the exact emotional resonance, heartbreak, and native simplicity that defined my earlier presentations like 'Premisthe', 'Shopping Mall', and 'Journey'. I told Chandu that we must bring this film to theatres together."

Box-Office Returns: Suresh Kondeti reiterated his faith that the film's strong musical foundation will draw family and youth audiences alike across both Telugu and Kannada markets.
