Jaya Krishna Ghattamaneni, a nephew of Mahesh Babu, is all set to make his acting debut with Srinivasa Mangapuram. Directed by Ajay Bhupathi, known for his gritty and intense storytelling, the film has already created curiosity in industry circles. Jaya Krishna is paired opposite Rasha Thadani, daughter of Raveena Tandon, who is making her Telugu debut after gaining nationwide attention with the viral 'Uyi Amma' track.
Presented by veteran producer Ashwini Dutt and produced by P Kiran, Srinivasa Mangapuram generated strong buzz with the release of the lead pair’s first look posters. Now, the makers have introduced another key character from the film.
On Saturday, senior actor Mohan Babu's first-look was unveiled, hinting at a ferocious avatar as Venkatappayya Naidu. In the poster, he exudes raw authority and dominance, walking forward with unshakable intensity. His salt-and-pepper hair and thick moustache amplify his fierce presence, while the simple white kurta and dhoti lend him the aura of a powerful village patriarch.
His cold, stern expression reflects suppressed fire and determination. Subtle touches like gold chains, a wristwatch, and a bracelet add vintage mass appeal to the character. Marching behind him is a group of rugged men, some carrying country-made rifles, reinforcing the idea that he is a man who commands both respect and fear.
Overall, the first look presents Mohan Babu in a majestic and authoritative light, perfectly capturing the essence of a man who rules his land with iron resolve. The veteran actor has already joined the shoot, which is currently progressing at a brisk pace.
The film’s music is being composed by GV Prakash Kumar, while cinematographer Jayakrishna ISC is shaping its visual tone. Action sequences are being choreographed by Real Sathish, promising high-intensity moments.
With Ajay Bhupathi’s vision, fresh faces in the lead, and a seasoned performer like Mohan Babu portraying a character with negative shades, Srinivasa Mangapuram appears to be shaping up as an intriguing and powerful cinematic venture.
