He has often spoken about how Jr NTR and Nandamuri Balakrishna treat him like family and guide him whenever needed. Vishwak Sen is also good friends with actor Siddhu Jonnalagadda, and all of them share mutual respect and admiration.
Recently, Vishwak Sen made an honest statement about his career choices after the film Laila failed at the box office. He revealed that both Jr NTR and Balakrishna garu advised him strongly after the film’s result. Vishwak Sen said that they told him not to choose films like Laila anymore and asked him to be more careful while selecting scripts. According to him, their words came from genuine concern and love, not criticism.
After facing this setback, Vishwak Sen is now fully focused on making a strong comeback. His next film is titled Funky, a comedy entertainer that has already created good buzz. The movie is directed by Anudeep KV, who earlier delivered the blockbuster comedy Jathi Ratnalu. Many fans believe this combination can work well.
The female lead in Funky is played by Kayadu Lohar. The film is scheduled for a grand theatrical release on February 13, 2026. Reports suggest that the makers have finalized a runtime of 2 hours and 8 minutes, which is considered ideal for a comedy film. A short and crisp duration may help the film connect better with the audience.
The theatrical trailer of Funky is expected to be released soon, increasing excitement among fans. The film is produced by Naga Vamsi and Sai Soujanya under Sithara Entertainments and Fortune Four Cinemas. Music is composed by Bheems Ceciroleo.
