Narne Nithiin and Nayan Sarika are the lead actors in the film AAY, which is produced by Bunny Vas and Vidya Koppineedi under the banner of GA2 Pictures and presented by Allu Aravind. The film is directed by Anji K Maniputhra and will have a grand release on August 15. A pre-release event was held on Tuesday, with hero Nikhil and heroine Sree Leela attended as chief guests and launched the Big Ticket.
At the event, Allu Aravind remarked, “We are set to release AAY on August 15 in the evening. I appreciate Nikhil and Sree Leela for gracing our event. I asked if it’s a story where ten people fall down if you hit it. NTR once said that anyone, regardless of their background, must face hardships. Nithiin has worked hard for this film, and Nayan Sarika performed excellently. Vinod made a notable appearance after many years, and both Kasiraju and Ankith acted brilliantly. I wondered how Anji would bring story to life, but Bunny Vas was confident. Anji did a great job, and I’ve seen the film. I believe the audience will enjoy it and come out with strong emotions.”
Hero Nikhil said, “Due to my shooting for Swayambhu, I couldn’t attend earlier events. There’s a lot of buzz on social media about this film. Nithiin’s promotion and his support for the young team are commendable. Films like Jathi Ratnalu, and Baby have shown that even small films can achieve big box office numbers. I hope AAY becomes a blockbuster in that category. After Mad, Nithiin has a promising film again, and I’m eager to see the magic from Kasiraju, Ankith, and Sarika. The film releases on August 15, so everyone should watch it.”
Sree Leela commented, “I really enjoyed Nithiin’s film Mad. It’s clear that AAY has a lot of humor. I love such films and am excited for the next movie with Anudeep Garu. I also love the Godavari accent. Everyone should watch all the films releasing on August 15.”
Narne Nithin said, “I want to thank Sai Rajesh, SKN, Kalyan Shankar, Anudeep Anna, Nikhil, and Sree Leela for attending our event. Our director has done a wonderful job, and producers Bunny Vas and Vidya akka have taken great care of the film. They supported us a lot on set. After finalizing the story, Allu Aravind called me and spoke for a long time. DOP Sameer delivered excellent visuals, Ajay and Ram Miryala composed great songs, and Bhanu Master choreographed impressive steps. Our film, releasing on August 15, carries a strong message: friendship transcends caste and religion.”
Producer Bunny Vas said, “If it weren’t for Narne Nithin, this film wouldn’t have come this far. It’s the story of three boys, and Nithin liked it and came on board. He got along very well with everyone involved. We initially planned a trailer launch event in Pithapuram but forgot to consult our hero about it. When I asked NTR, he advised that as long as it benefits the producer and the film, it doesn’t matter. It’s rare to see someone solely focused on the cinema. A simple animator from Palakollu has now worked with a hero from the NTR family, which seems like a significant achievement. I am a big fan of Pawan Kalyan and being part of his political journey as luck permitted. Although some said the publicity was low, Bunny has always been there for me. My mother and my friend Bunny are the ones who know when I need help and come forward to assist. Bunny shared the trailer of my movie on social media before I even asked. Twenty years ago, when I made a mistake, Bunny stood by me. If not for Bunny, there wouldn’t be a Bunny Vas. I also want to thank Sree Leela for attending our event despite her busy schedule. This is my banner and my film, and I will definitely support it,” said Nikhil Bhayya. “Riyaz and Bhanu brought this story to me. I remembered being upset after watching fzn entertainer like Jathi Ratnalu. If not for Jathi Ratnalu and Mad, this story wouldn’t have been made this way. Our film is releasing on August 15. Everyone should watch it.”
Producer SKN said, “Thanks to Nikhil for coming despite his busy schedule with Swayambhu, and to Sree Leela. Best wishes to Dhruva, Tara, Narne Nithiin, Kasireddy, and Ankith Koya. Thanks to my friend Bunny Vas, Bhanu, and Riyaz. I’m grateful to our Godfather Allu Aravind for his guidance. I’ve seen the first copy of the movie. We had many laughs in the first half, and the last ten minutes are very emotional. It’s going to be a great film about friendship.”
Sai Rajesh said, “This film is special to me as it is made by all my favorite people. Narne Nithin shines as the boy next door. Anji has directed the film excellently. While Geetha Arts and GA2 Pictures are known for big films, they are now giving newcomers a chance. Thanks to Allu Aravind, Bunny Vas, and Vidya for supporting these new talents. Everyone should watch this film coming out on August 15.”
Director Anji K Maniputra said, “Thanks to my friends Naveen and Riyaz for presenting my story to Bunny Vas. Our film wouldn’t have been as successful without Bunny Vas. Narne Nithiin’s performance is so authentic that it feels like he truly lives the role. Kasireddy’s timing is fresh, and Ankith performed brilliantly. Sameer provided stunning visuals. Thanks to my technical team. We provide the laughs, and you (the audience) bring the emotions. The film will entertain in the style of Mad and Jathi Ratnalu and leave you with strong emotions.”
Ankith Koya said, “It’s rare to get such a great role in a film like this. Bunny Vas Garu emphasized that the responsibility for comedy falls on us. Anji Anna was a huge help with the accent. Everything I do in this film is a result of his guidance. We are confident that everyone will smile on August 15. I’ll discuss more about the film at the success meet.”
Nayan Sarika said, “Without Bunny Vas’s support, this film wouldn’t have come this far. He has always stood by us when needed. Thanks to Allu Aravind for this wonderful opportunity. I’m grateful to Anji for believing in me and giving me such a good role. Working with Nithin Gare was a pleasure, and Ankit is a very nice person. Kasireddy is dedicated, and it was a joy to work with the AAY team. Our film releases on August 15. Everyone should watch it.”
Co-producer Bhanu said, “AAY is not just an expression but an emotion. From the title alone, it seemed like a successful venture. I want this film to be a big hit.”
Co-producer Riyaz said, “Thanks to everyone who attended the event. This is my second film, and I’m grateful to Vidya and Vas Garu for this opportunity. Anji has created a film that will make everyone laugh. Nithiin, Sarika, Ankith, and Kasireddy performed brilliantly. Everyone should watch our film.”
