With just days to go before its much-awaited release, Hari Hara Veera Mallu: Part 1 is back in the spotlight as Mega Surya Productions dropped a stunning new poster featuring Powerstar Pawan Kalyan. The image, which captures Kalyan in fierce warrior form alongside a soaring eagle, comes with a rousing caption: “A legacy etched in fire and fearlessness. The SPIRIT of DHARMA is set to rise.” Set in the tumultuous backdrop of the 17th-century Mughal and Qutb Shahi empires, the film promises an epic battle between valor and tyranny, hitting cinemas worldwide on June 12, 2025.
Directed by Krish Jagarlamudi, the Telugu historical action saga explores the theme of dharma—righteous duty—through the lens of a rebellious hero who dares to defy an empire. Pawan Kalyan leads the cast with commanding presence, supported by Bobby Deol, Nidhhi Agerwal, and veteran actor Sathyaraj. The poster’s powerful visuals echo the film’s central message: one man’s stand against oppression can inspire a revolution.
Interestingly, Hari Hara Veera Mallu also reflects the dual life of its lead star. Since June 2024, Kalyan has served as the Deputy Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, skillfully balancing his political duties with his return to cinema. After a pause in filming due to his election campaign, he resumed production in September 2024, reinforcing his continued resonance in both the public and cinematic spheres of Telugu-speaking India.
The road to release hasn’t been smooth. Initially slated for a 2022 premiere, the film endured pandemic-related delays and scheduling challenges tied to Kalyan’s political commitments. The decision to split the film into two parts, announced in May 2024, marked a strategic pivot to preserve its epic scale and narrative depth. Now, as the countdown hits 13 days, anticipation for Hari Hara Veera Mallu: Part 1 is at an all-time high—promising not just a cinematic spectacle, but a cultural moment for fans of history, heroism, and high-stakes drama.
