Actor Nandamuri Balakrishna starrer the upcoming movie ‘Daaku Maharaaj’ is gearing up for a worldwide release on January 12.
During the movie promotions, actress Pragya Jaiswal said “Daaku Maharaaj releasing on my birthday is the biggest coincidence ever”. Actress Pragya interacted with the media and shared her insights and experience of working in the film.
Pragya Jaiswal said “I feel truly blessed, it’s the best coincidence ever. Releasing on my birthday, and during Sankranti festival – a significant festival is like a sign from the universe. This feels like the biggest celebration I could ask for.”
Actress said Sankranti is a special time when many big films release. All good films find success during this season. I wish the best for all films releasing alongside ours and hope they all get the recognition they deserve.
Definitely, Balakrishna Sir is a lucky charm, I am happy to associate with him once again. Daaku Maharaaj is a completely different film and world, brilliantly created by Bobby Sir. My character, Kaveri, is unique and exciting.
I already feel positivity around this project because the audience has always appreciated me on screen, and I hope they will enjoy this performance too, said Pragya Jaiswal.
Bobby Sir was the first director I met in the Telugu film industry, even before I did Kanche. We have been in touch for years but never got the chance to collaborate until now. When he approached me for this film, I was instantly on board after watching the teaser.
His calm demeanor on set, even during challenging situations, makes the entire experience smooth. Despite the heat, dust, and tough conditions in Rajasthan, he and his team created a stress-free environment. Working with him has been an absolute blessing, said the actress.
Speaking about the actor Balakrishna, Pragya Jaiswal said “Surprisingly, there are not many differences. Off-screen, Balayya Sir is the same positive and energetic person. He’s enthusiastic, talkative, and full of life, always cracking jokes or sharing stories about his father’s movies.”
Sharing about the experience of shooting, Pragya Jaiswal said “Shooting in Rajasthan’s extreme heat and dust, along with the use of propeller fans, was physically demanding.
I fell sick on the second or third day, but the passion of the team kept me going. Bobby Sir and his crew made sure I could focus solely on my performance, despite the challenging conditions. The DOP Vijay Kannan Sir’s attention to detail brought Bobby Sir’s vision to life, and that motivated me to give my best.”
