Finally, Krish Clarifies On HHVM Script?

Talented filmmaker Krish is coming up with his next film Ghaati which is releasing in theatres on September 5. In the promotional campaign of the film, he has opened up about his previous debacle Hari Hara Veera Mallu and here’s what he had to say about the same.

Director Krish Jagarlamudi has finally given clarity about why he stepped away from Hari Hara Veera Mallu, the much-awaited film starring Pawan Kalyan.

For a long time, there were rumors that Krish left the project because of differences with the actor. However, Krish has now made it clear that this is not true. He explained that the real reasons were personal issues, delays caused by COVID, and difficulties in managing schedules.

Krish said he has great respect for Pawan Kalyan and producer AM Rathnam. He even added that he would love to work with Pawan Kalyan again in the future if the chance comes. Before the release of the film, Krish shared an emotional note, calling it one of his most passionate projects, though it also brought him many struggles.

The film finally released on July 24, 2025, after facing several delays. While the performances and grand visuals were praised, the movie received criticism for weak VFX and uneven storytelling.

Director Jyothi Krishna, who also worked on the film, admitted that some CGI work was not up to the mark but said the story and core idea were always strong. Krish’s statement shows there was no clash, only circumstances.
