Speaking about the festive releases, Anil Sunkara said it is positive to have comedy films this Sankranthi. He explained that comedy does not exhaust audiences. Viewers can even watch multiple films on the same day.
Talking about his upcoming film, he described Nari Nari Naduma Murari as complete entertainment. He said the film offers non-stop fun from the first frame to the last frame. The producer sounded confident about its appeal.

He said Bhola became a victim of the audience rejecting remake films. Regarding Agent, he accepted that the story itself was problematic. Issues started from Day1, but over-ambition pushed the team forward.
The producer expressed regret over not delivering a hit for Akhil. He also responded to questions about reported losses. These included claims of losing 70-80 Crore on Bhola and Agent.
Other topics discussed included Anil Sunkara’s overall Tollywood balance sheet. He also spoke about his liquor business in AP under the new government. Interestingly, he revealed plans to work on a robot that could replace chefs in kitchens.
