'Bangarraju' will hit the screens on January 14 after completing its pending post-production works. Director Kalyan Krishna Kurasala and Akkineni Nagarjuna today confirmed the release date at a presser in Hyderabad.

The film has Naga Chaitanya and Krithi Shetty as a lovelorn couple with the Nag-Ramya Krishna duo playing Cupid. Also featuring Rao Ramesh, Brahmaji, Vennela Kishore, Jhansi and Anita Chowdery, its music is by Anup Rubens.

The film is in the Sankranthi race because Nag worked towards ensuring that it comes out for the festival. Its script reading sessions were held over Zoom video calls during the pandemic. Its shoot was completed in the second half of 2021. Nag said that the ticket prices issue won't affect the commercial prospects of the film in AP.

Produced by Zee Studios and Annapurna Studios, the entertainer has screenplay by Satyanand.
