Ilaiyaraaja Surprises Fans with ‘Shashtipurthi’ Teaser Launch
Ilaiyaraaja’s Rare Gesture:Shashtipurthi Teaser All for the Young Team
Renowned composer Ilaiyaraaja is known for his low-key approach and rarely attends promotional events. However, in a pleasant surprise, the music maestro made an appearance in Hyderabad for the teaser launch of his upcoming Telugu film Shashtipurthi.
This move caught everyone’s attention, as Ilaiyaraaja is usually very selective about stepping into the spotlight. But this time, he had a special reason.
Why Did Ilaiyaraaja Step Out for Shashtipurthi Teaser?
Speaking at the event, Ilaiyaraaja said, “The team behind Shashtipurthi is full of young and talented individuals. I wanted to show my support for their work. You’ve enjoyed my music for decades, and I promise you’ll love what we’ve created for this film too.”
His words reflected not just encouragement but genuine admiration for the emerging talent in the Telugu film industry.
M.M. Keeravani Pens for Ilaiyaraaja’s Music
The event also featured Oscar-winning composer M.M. Keeravani, who wrote the lyrics for the song Edo Ededo from the film. He described the track as a reflection of the movie’s soul and a tribute to Ilaiyaraaja himself.
Keeravani’s presence at the event further emphasized the respect and camaraderie shared among music legends.
Rajendra Prasad Reunites with Ilaiyaraaja
Veteran actor Rajendra Prasad, who plays a key role in Shashtipurthi, expressed his joy at working with Ilaiyaraaja again. “I’ve always referred to him as ‘Swami’ with great reverence. Collaborating with him once more for this project feels truly special,” he shared.
He is also reuniting with actress Archana, reviving their iconic Ladies Tailor combo for this film.
New Faces Lead the Way
The film stars young talents Rupeysh and Akanksha Singh in the lead roles. Backed by MAA AAI Productions, Shashtipurthi is directed by Pavan Prabha and produced by Rupesh Kumar Chowdary.
The team is expected to announce the release date soon, and the teaser has already sparked curiosity among fans and critics alike.
Final Thoughts: A Musical Journey Backed by Experience and Energy
Shashtipurthi brings together legendary experience and youthful energy. With Ilaiyaraaja’s music, Keeravani’s lyrics, and a dynamic cast, the film is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated releases of the year.
