Hyderabad, August 1, 2024: The pre-release buzz surrounding Allu Sirish’s upcoming action-adventure entertainer, ‘Buddy’, has reached a fever pitch. The film, directed by Sam Anton and produced by KE Gnanavel Raja and Adhana Gnanavel Raja under the banner of Studio Green Films, is slated for a grand theatrical release on August 2, 2024.
At the film’s pre-release press meet today, the entire cast and crew expressed unwavering confidence in the project. Allu Sirish revealed that the film has garnered overwhelmingly positive feedback from audiences of all age groups during its pre-release screenings.
