Satyanarayana
Koneru
has
produced
Mass
Maharaja
Ravi
Teja's
Khiladi
directed
by
Ramesh
Verma.
This
is
Ravi
Teja's
stylish
film
to
date
and
is
being
co-produced
by
Bollywood
production
company
Pen
Studios
and
A
Studios.
The
upcoming
film
with
the
tagline
'Play
Smart'

Hayati

Producer
Satyanarayana
Koneru
spoke
to
the
media
on
the
occasion.
How
did
Khiladi
happen?
Ramesh
Verma
narrated
to
me
the
story
of
Khiladi
and
I
just
loved
it
completely.
I
said
it
would
be
apt
for
Ravi
Teja.
The
star
also
heard
the
story
and
agreed
to
do
it
immediately.
Writer
Srikanth
wrote
dialogues
for
the
film.
Ravi
Teja
immediately
gave
us
the
dates.
I
believed
in
the
story.
I
earlier
believed
in
the
story
of
Rakshasudu
which
was
a
hit.
I
told
Ravi
Teja
that
I
am
making
this
film
and
it
will
become
the
biggest
hit
in
his
career.
About
Khiladi:
Although
it
is
a
regular
commercial
film,
it
is
a
must-watch
movie
for
the
whole
family.
No
movie
has
come
up
with
such
a
point
till
now.
We
are
coming
up
with
a
new
concept.
It
is
a
perfect
Bollywood
movie.
We
shot
a
few
scenes
in
Italy
which
are
of
Hollywood
standard.
The
movie
has
been
made
as
a
very
stylish
entertainer.
Production
values
are
also
rich.
I
have
faith
in
my
film.
I'm
saying
this
after
watching
the
movie.
Giving
the
Director
a
costly
gift:
Ramesh
Varma
showed
me
this
movie.
I
really
liked
it.
Thus,
I
wanted
to
give
him
something.
That's
why
I
presented
him
with
a
car
as
a
gift.
The
film
is
going
to
be
a
blockbuster
hit.
How
did
you
enter
the
film
industry?
I
have
educational
institutions
and
other
businesses.
I
have
entered
the
film
industry
for
my
son,
Havish.
Initially,
I
made
films
just
for
Havish.
But
now,
we
are
planning
films
on
a
large
scale.
About
Hindi
Release:
We
teamed
up
with
Pen
Studios
to
take
this
story
to
the
Pan
India
level.
The
film
is
being
released
in
Telugu
as
well
as
Hindi.
About
February
11th
Release.
Initially,
I
was
also
sceptical
about
the
film's
release
on
February
11th.
I
doubted
whether
Ramesh
Verma
will
deliver
the
content
on
time?
But
he
took
it
as
a
challenge.
The
film
is
ready
and
is
ready
for
release.
We
sought
permission
to
delay
Night
Curfew
by
another
hour.
If
we
get
it,
we
can
screen
four
shows
in
AP.
We
are
releasing
in
more
theatres
in
Nizam.
We
will
have
a
solo
release.
No
other
big
movie
may
come
out
until
February
25.
I
believe
that
Khiladi
will
not
have
a
competition.
So
far,
I
have
set
up
engineering
colleges.
But
now
I
want
to
build
a
university
completely
for
Entertainment
Industry.
I
acquired
a
hundred
acres
of
land
in
Pragathi
Nagar,
Hyderabad.
At
this
University,
I
want
to
focus
more
on
entertainment.
I
want
to
build
a
world-class
entertainment-based
university.
About
the
Film's
Music:
Devi
Sri
Prasad
is
a
perfect
choice
and
he
provided
wonderful
music.
Five
songs
released
so
far
have
become
hits.
Everyone
is
praising
the
film's
music.
Both
the
heroines
did
well.
Grand
Release:
It
will
get
a
massive
release
as
there
are
no
other
releases
in
Telugu.
We
are
releasing
this
film
on
a
large
scale
all
over
the
world.
There
will
be
no
competition
for
the
film
in
Hindi
either.
I
believe
the
movie
will
do
very
well
in
Hindi
as
well.
