Tollywood director Anil Ravipudi has a strong fan base for his filmmaking style. Known as a producer’s director, Anil Ravipudi delivers films in a short time and on a limited budget while scoring hits at the box office. Industry circles say only Anil can turn tight schedules and controlled budgets into box office success.
Now his brand value is proven again. Anil Ravipudi is currently directing a Daggubati Venkatesh and Nandamuri Kalyan Ram multistarrer. The project created strong buzz right from its announcement, and even before shooting began it has generated huge excitement among fans and trade circles.
In a sign of Anil Ravipudi’s market pull, the OTT deal for the multistarrer has reportedly been closed before the film went on floors. Film circles report that popular streaming platform Zee5 has acquired the digital rights for a huge price. The early deal shows the craze digital platforms have for Anil Ravipudi films. His previous films were super hits in theatres and on OTT, breaking multiple records. Closing the OTT deal before production begins highlights Anil Ravipudi’s brand value and consistent track record of nine consecutive hits.
Anil Ravipudi’s making is different from other directors. He plans within budget, uses available resources perfectly, and aims to deliver double the profits for producers. That is why the industry calls him a producer’s director. All nine films in his career have been hits and brought solid profits. This multistarrer stars Daggubati Venkatesh and Nandamuri Kalyan Ram in the lead roles. The shooting of the Venkatesh and Kalyan Ram film is set to begin in Hyderabad in the last week of June 2026. The producers plan to wrap the film in three schedules. Casting, technical team formation, and pre-production are moving at a rapid pace. The team is targeting a grand Sankranti 2027 release.
