Hyderabad, India – On May 19, 2024, the Telugu film industry celebrated its talented directors with a grand “Telugu Film Directors’ Day” event held at the Lal Bahadur Sastry stadium. This event served as a platform to acknowledge the significant contributions of directors to the booming Telugu film industry.
The ceremony was graced by the presence of popular Telugu stars Allu Arjun and Nani, who extended their appreciation to the directors for their creative vision and dedication. Notably, the event opted for a unique approach, forgoing live broadcast and television rights sales. Instead, streaming platform Aha secured the rights to the event and will premiere it soon.
A particular highlight for fans was the sight of Allu Arjun and Nani sharing the stage, generating significant excitement on social media. Allu Arjun donned a casual look with a beard, sporting a biscuit-colored t-shirt and black denim. Nani, complementing the theme, opted for a white t-shirt layered under a white coat, paired with black denim.
Beyond the star presence, Aha’s acquisition of the streaming rights garnered considerable attention. The platform plans to heavily promote the event, with a scheduled premiere slated for late May 2024. The event itself witnessed the participation of numerous prominent figures from Telugu cinema, solidifying its success.
Director Anil Ravipudi emerged as a crowd favorite with his energetic performance of popular Venkatesh songs. Videos of his performance went viral on social media, further amplifying the buzz surrounding the event. The Telugu Film Directors’ Association (TFDA) reportedly invested significant planning efforts over a month, with directors personally inviting star actors to ensure a memorable celebration.
