Priyadarshi will soon be seen headlining a buddy comedy titled Mithra Mandali, sharing the lead with Rag Mayur, Vishnu Oi and Prasad Behara. The first single of the film, titled ‘Kattanduko Janaki’ was launched at a grand ceremony held in Amalapuram on Saturday.

Composed by RR Dhruvan, ‘Kattanduko Janaki’ is a robust and catchy boys-will-be-boys anthem, capturing their never-changing habits and attitude towards life. The catchy hookline comes from a collective angry response from all the parents of the world, who are clueless how to deal with their offsprings. RR Dhruvan has also worked as a playback singer for his composition, while Rahul Sipligunj is the main vocalist. The youthful lyrics are by Kasarla Shyam. 

Directed by Vijayendar, Mithra Mandali also marks the debut for popular internet personality Niharika NM. Actors like Satya, VTV Ganesh and Vennela Kishore among others comprise the supporting cast. 

Bunny Vas is presenting the film that’s jointly produced by Kalyan Manthina, Bhanu Pratapa and Dr Vijender Reddy Teegala under the banners of Sapta Aswa Media Works and Vyra Entertainments with Somaraju Penmetsa serving as co-producer. In the technical team, Peekay handles the editing and Siddharth SJ is the cinematographer.
