Director Krish: ‘Hari Hara Veera Mallu’ Is a Battle of Fire, Faith, and Forgotten History

As Hari Hara Veera Mallu gears up for its grand worldwide release on July 24, 2025, director Krish Jagarlamudi shared a heartfelt note reflecting on the film’s intense journey, emotional depth, and the legends who brought it to life. Describing the film as a culmination of “fire and faith,” Krish highlighted the passion and power that define every frame of this historical action epic.

Krish called Pawan Kalyan not just the hero of the film, but its “spine, soul, and storm.” He described the actor as an extraordinary force blessed with a purpose far greater than stardom. “There’s a fire in him that no camera can fully capture,” Krish said, emphasizing how Pawan Kalyan’s spirit and conviction gave life to the character of Veera Mallu.

He also paid glowing tribute to A.M. Ratnam, the film’s presenter, calling him “the architect behind some of Indian cinema’s grand experiences.” Krish praised his unwavering strength, vision, and ability to hold together massive cinematic projects like HHVM, crediting him for backing the film with unmatched commitment.

The director revealed that Hari Hara Veera Mallu was not just a directorial project but a personal battle — a chance to explore lost history, present uncomfortable truths, and build a world that both entertains and enlightens. He described it as one of his most passionate works, driven by his belief in cinema as a powerful tool of storytelling and legacy.

Concluding his message, Krish offered his deepest gratitude to both Pawan Kalyan and A.M. Ratnam, expressing pride in unveiling a film that is not only fierce and rooted but also deeply personal. “Now… Hari Hara Veera Mallu walks into the world. Not quietly… but with purpose,” he wrote.
