Nagarjuna Akkineni Shares Emotional Insights at Kuberaa Song Launch in Mumbai

A Memorable Evening at the Kuberaa Song Launch

The launch event for the song from the film Kuberaa in Mumbai began with an exciting surprise: two consecutive screenings of the film's teaser, followed by the unveiling of the new track 'Pippi Pippi Dum Dum Dum,' which set a vibrant tone for the night.

One of the standout moments of the evening was when superstar Nagarjuna Akkineni opened up about the significance of Kuberaa in his career. He expressed that the film arrived at a pivotal moment when he was in search of something innovative and impactful.

Nagarjuna stated, 'This film is incredibly special to me. It came into my life when I was contemplating my next steps. As you asked, what should I pursue next? I can't continue repeating the same roles.'

He also shared his long-held aspiration to work with director Sekhar Kammula, which was realized with Kuberaa, and noted that it didn't require much persuasion.

'Sekhar Kammula, whom I’ve wanted to collaborate with for the past 15 years, approached me and asked, ‘Would you like to take on this role?’ I didn’t even inquire much about the details; I simply agreed.'

Nagarjuna commended Kammula's distinctive storytelling style and the emotional depth present in his films.

'I’ve watched Sekhar’s previous works. He is an exceptional filmmaker — so authentic, and his sensibilities resonate deeply. As Dhanush mentioned, his heart is pure, and that authenticity shines through in his scripts.'

Describing Kuberaa as the perfect film at the right moment, Nagarjuna concluded, 'Everything felt just right.'

The film is produced by Suniel Narang and Puskur Ram Mohan Rao under the banners of Sri Venkateswara Cinemas LLP and Amigos Creations Pvt Ltd, with co-producers Vipul Agarwal and Manish Vasisth. Mugafi is responsible for presenting and distributing the film in North India.

Directed by the National Award-winning Sekhar Kammula, Kuberaa features a stellar cast including Nagarjuna Akkineni, Dhanush, and Rashmika Mandanna. The music is composed by Devi Sri Prasad (DSP), and the film will be available in five languages: Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, Kannada, and Malayalam, enhancing its appeal across India.

Kuberaa is scheduled for a worldwide release on June 20, 2025.
