'Nani 31' titled 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram'; check out first poster
After building the hype over the last few days through cast announcements, the makers of Telugu star Nani's upcoming film, Nani 31, have now unveiled its title. The film has been titled Saripodhaa Sanivaaram. In addition to the title, the makers have also unveiled the first poster and first glimpse video, which featured Nani in heavy iron chains, locked in a warehouse-like facility.
Why does this story matter?
Saripodhaa Sanivaaram is directed by Vivek Athreya and will mark his second collaboration with Nani after their successful 2022 outing Ante Sundaraniki. Additionally, Saripodhaa Sanivaaram is also special because it will reunite Nani with his Nani's Gang Leader co-star Priyanka Arul Mohan. Since Nani recently delivered a mammoth success in the form of Dasara, the hype around his upcoming projects has already heightened.
'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' will predominantly be action film
The production company DVV Entertainment officially confirmed the title on social media on Monday, on the occasion of Maha Navami. "Get ready to witness an UNCHAINED storm of action and entertainment," said the production house while sharing the intense poster. From the first glimpse, it looks like Nani's character is in incarceration and will get into combat while fighting for his life and freedom.
