Ajay Bhupathi, known for making hard-hitting films, is currently working on his new directorial Srinivasa Mangapuram. The film marks the launch vehicle of Jaya Krishna Ghattameni, grandson of superstar Krishna and nephew of Mahesh Babu. He is paired with Raveena Tandon’s daughter Rasha Thadani. She makes her Telugu debut after gaining nationwide attention with the viral Uyi Amma track.

With industry stalwart Ashwini Dutt presenting the film and producer P Kiran powering the production, Srinivasa Mangapuram already generated strong buzz with its first look posters of the lead pair. We already reported that legendary Mohan Babu is playing Rasha Thadani’s father in this rural entertainer. Today, the makers launched Mohan Babu’s first-look poster, and the actor exudes raw authority, walking forward with an unshakeable intensity.

He plays Venkatappayya Naidu in the film, and his salt-and-pepper hair and thick moustache enhance his fierce persona. The simple white kurta–dhoti attire gives him the aura of a powerful village patriarch. His expression is cold, stern, and full of suppressed fire. Marching right behind him is a group of tough men, some armed with country rifles, reinforcing that he is a leader who commands respect and fear.

Mohan Babu already joined the team, and the shooting of the movie is presently underway. He essays a negative-shaded role in Srinivasa Mangapuram. The music is being composed by GV Prakash Kumar, while popular cinematographer Jayakrishna ISC brings the film’s visual tone to life.
