Itllu Arjuna hits screens on October 30 — and now, it’s got a king behind it. Nagarjuna, who’s stepping in as presenter under his Annapurna Studios banner, has thrown his weight behind the debut of Aniesh and Anaswara Rajan in a film that defies easy categorisation: part action, part romance, all emotional stakes. The actor-producer didn’t just lend his name. He watched the full cut, warned Aniesh about the risks of playing a mute lead in his first film, and then admitted he was stunned by what he saw. 'I was amazed,' he said, calling it one of the best romantic films he’s seen in years. That kind of endorsement from a veteran with a track record of backing fresh voices carries more than just clout. It signals momentum. The film, directed by Mahesh Uppala and produced by debutant Venky Kudumula, already has S Thaman’s music generating buzz. Now, with Nagarjuna’s stamp of approval, the pressure’s on to deliver. Aniesh and Anaswara are riding high after the press event where Nagarjuna praised their chemistry and the film’s youthful energy. But the real test comes on October 30. Will the gamble pay off? The screen’s waiting.
