Panjaa Vaishnav Tej, Kriti Shetty's romantic entertainer Uppena directed by Buchi Babu Sana is going great guns at the box office. Many are surprised at Megastar Chiranjeevi giving green signal for his nephew to make his debut with Uppena which has a shocking climax.
Chiranjeevi in his career mostly did commercial entertainers. Though he did experimental films, with lack of positive response from people, he confined himself to commercial entertainers. Many feel that he prefers only mass masala films.
But people are surprised when Chiranjeevi allowed Vaishnav Tej to make his debut with Uppena and also express his confidence over the film's success. Inside talk is he told Mythri Movie Makers not to sell the film despite tempting offers.
Mythri Movie Makers head Naveen even revealed Chiranjeevi's stunning challenge. He said during lockdown they got many tempting offers from the OTTs but refused all of them and even after theatrical release was decided, got another lucrative offer.
He said however Chiranjeevi called them more than twice and told them Uppena's climax will create a sensation and power the film at the box office and asked them to trust him and release on their own. He even challenged that he will stop giving judgment on films if his prediction on Uppena fails.
