The artist further said, “allu arjun He has his own fan following. With that, after Atlee gave Jawan such a big hit… Atlee is now known in the corridors of Mumbai. He has become famous in Bombay industry by giving Jawan; It is famous there (South). For this belt, people will watch because of Atlee, and Allu Arjun has a fan following, so it is a double combination. There will be some different opening.”
(Along with this, Atlee has become quite famous in the corridors of Mumbai after giving such a big hit with Jawan. He was already famous in the South but after Jawan, he has got recognition in the Bollywood industry as well. People in this area will come to watch because of Atlee and since Allu Arjun has a strong fan following, it becomes a double combination. Hence, the opening is sure to be out of this world.)

I don’t think anyone hates me; in fact, everyone loves me.)
