Sreeleela is absolutely grateful as Bhagavanth Kesari wins National Award

Sreeleela is genuinely experiencing a dream as her film Bhagavanth Kesari wins the Best Telugu Film prize at the 71st National Film Awards.

The young actress, who has already emerged as one of the most talked-about stars in South Indian cinema, has even more reason to celebrate.

Taking to Instagram, Sreeleela poured her heart out in gratitude. Sharing her excitement with fans and her team, she wrote: “Absolutely grateful  Thank you so much. Closest to my heart closer to y'all #BHAGAVANTHKESARI @anilravipudi @balakrishna_nandamuri @shinescreenscinema @kajalaggarwalofficial.”



Directed by Anil Ravipudi, Bhagavanth Kesari hit theatres in 2023 with a powerful cast that included Nandamuri Balakrishna and Kajal Aggarwal alongside Sreeleela.

The film was primarily based on Balakrishna's dominant performance, but Sreeleela's passion and commitment to her part were also unavoidable. She was praised by both critics and viewers for holding her own even against more established celebrities.

The success of the movie was evidence of its capacity to engage audiences by fusing intense action with nuanced emotion.

Fans praised its widespread appeal, and the National Award has now cemented its status as one of the year's pivotal Telugu films.

For Sreeleela, this honour feels like a natural step in a journey that is gaining momentum at lightning speed. In just a short time, she has gone from being a rising newcomer to one of the most in-demand actresses in the South.

On the work front, the actress is getting ready to make her Bollywood debut in a musical romantic drama helmed by the celebrated Anurag Basu, opposite Kartik Aaryan.

With a National Award-winning film already under her belt and a Hindi film debut imminent, Sreeleela's story seems to be just getting started, and viewers nationwide are excited to see where it goes.
