The entire budget for the film's ground promotions will now be dedicated to aiding those affected by the devastating floods in Gujarat. These resources will support flood-impacted families, farmers, and educational efforts. For us, humanity is greater than any film.”

Chiranjeevi is not just a concept behind a film… it's a responsibility. Let's do whatever we can to help, because true heroes are not born on the screen—they are born in society. #GetSetGo #MissionChiranjeevi #GujaratFloods #StandWithGujarat #GujaratiCinema.”
