Pawan Kalyan, an actor and recently appointed Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister, recently spoke to the media during a rare press conference in Hyderabad.
The politician-star talked extensively about his upcoming period action-drama Hari Hara Veera Mallu (HHVM) and how, while balancing his political responsibilities, he created the film's climax sequence.
20-Minute HHVM Action Sequence Created by Pawan
Pawan Kalyan disclosed that he spent 57 days filming the climax sequence of HHVM in May, despite his demanding political obligations. The actor, who has a background in martial arts, collaborated with professional choreographers to create a complex 20-minute action sequence in the sweltering summer heat.
This fight scene has emotional weight in addition to action. The oppression Indians endured during the Mughal era is reflected in it," he said.
"Even with my hectic schedule, I managed to find time because this movie allowed me to use my martial arts skills," he continued. The audience will be profoundly affected by the drama and conflict in the climax.
Juggling Film Commitments with Deputy CM Duties
Pawan openly discussed the difficulties he faces in juggling his roles as an actor and political leader. People began to question whether I could keep acting after I entered politics and was appointed Deputy CM. I feel the same way, so I can see why they find it challenging," he said.
"However, I made it a point to give this movie my all, especially for producer AM Rathnam, who trusted me with this project."
Cinema Is Not Limited by Boundaries
The Gabbar Singh actor also highlighted his admiration for the film industry, describing it as a place where caste, geography, and language are irrelevant. "People can come together through cinema." It's one of the few professions where your career, not your upbringing, defines who you are," he said.
Concerning Hari Hara Veera Mallu
Pawan Kalyan plays an outlaw who rebels against the Mughal empire in Hari Hara Veera Mallu: Part 1 – Sword vs. Spirit, which was produced by AM Rathnam and directed by Krish and Jyothi Krisna. Nidhhi Agerwal plays the dancer Panchami, and Bobby Deol portrays Aurangzeb. On July 24, the movie will be released in theaters.

Future Initiatives
Pawan Kalyan had previously signed They Call Him OG with Sujeeth and Ustaad Bhagat Singh with Harish Shankar in addition to HHVM. However, the actor is currently juggling his full-time job in public service, so both movies are still unfinished.
Hari Hara Veera Mallu is a passion project for Pawan, who returns not only as a performer but also as a creator who contributes to the action and spirit of the film despite political pressures and film delays.
