A historical adventure with soul-stirring music, ‘Hari Hara Veera Mallu’, produced by A. Dayakar Rao under the banner of Mega Surya Production, will be an epic tale of adventure during the Mughal empire under Aurangzeb.

The film portrays India’s complex socio-economic landscape during the period when foreign powers like the Dutch and Portuguese exploited the country's riches.

It may be recalled that a song titled ‘Maata Vinali’ / ‘Kekkanum Guruve’ that the makers released from the film had caught the attention of fans. The song, which appears during a crucial moment in the film, is set against the scenic backdrop of a forest. The Telugu version of the song was penned by Penchal Das while the Tamil version was by lyricist Pa Vijay.

What made the song of particular interest to fans was that Pawan Kalyan himself lent his voice for the Telugu version. For the other languages, advanced AI technology was utilized to enhance and replicate Pawan Kalyan’s unique vocal tone, creating an authentic experience for fans worldwide.

The music, composed by the iconic M.M. Keeravaani, is poised to join the league of timeless philosophical hits, reminiscent of classic MGR songs.

Apart from Pawan Kalyan, ‘Hari Hara Veera Mallu’ will also feature Nidhhi Agerwal, Bobby Deol, and Nassar, supported by Raghu Babu, Subbaraju, Sunil, and many others. The film has cinematography by Manoj Paramahamsa and Gnanashekar V.S., and production design by Thota Tharani.
