Children’s Film “Summer Holidays” Should Entertain Everyone: Producer Dil Raju at Teaser Launch Event
I Produced ‘Summer Holidays’ So That Children and Families Can Go to Theatres and Enjoy Together: Producer Dheeraj Mogilineni
Hats Off to Producer Dheeraj, Who Passionately Backs Good Stories with Courage: Director Sai Rajesh
Producer and distributor Dheeraj Mogilineni has earned a successful reputation by presenting content-driven films to audiences. Under his banner Dheeraj Mogilineni Entertainment, he is now bringing a children’s film titled “Summer Holidays” to audiences soon. Directed by Srikar, the film is crafted with a beautiful story that brings back nostalgic childhood memories. Master Rohan, Master Arun, and Baby Khushi play key roles in the movie. “Summer Holidays” is gearing up for a grand theatrical release shortly. The teaser launch event for the film was held today with noted producer Dil Raju attending as the chief guest.
Speaking at the event, producer Dil Raju said, “It has been a long time since we’ve seen such a lively film event. Dheeraj is Vamshi Paidipally’s cousin. He used to run a restaurant business. Once, he shared with me his dream of entering the film industry. I told him he was doing well in the restaurant business and that cinema is risky. But he was determined and entered the industry anyway. Today, he has created his own path and delivered hit after hit. It’s been a long time since we had a proper children’s film. I hope this movie entertains everyone this summer and brings family audiences to theatres. All the best to Dheeraj and Giri for this film. The industry is currently going through a difficult phase. Many new directors are here today, and the success of small films is giving strength to the industry. I hope they continue achieving more success and keep the industry thriving.”
Writer Kondal Rao said, “Earlier, I was part of the writing team for Committee Kurrollu. Now, I’ve worked as a writer for this film. Everyone has memories of visiting their grandmother’s house and forming deep friendships during childhood. This movie beautifully captures those nostalgic emotions with fun, fantasy, and emotion. Just as much as you liked the teaser, you will enjoy the film too.”
Editor Santosh Naidu said, “Dheeraj garu made this film with great passion. All the children performed wonderfully. Every visual in the film will remind audiences of nostalgic moments. Director Srikar has made a film that everyone will love. Like all of you, I’m eagerly waiting for the release.”
Lyricist Kittu Vissapragada said, “I wrote the songs only after reading the complete story. Earlier too, for Little Hearts, I read the full script before writing songs. I’m happy to have written all the songs for this movie.”
Music director Sinjith Yerramilli said, “Summer Holidays is a very special film for me. Thanks to Dheeraj garu for giving me this opportunity. Director Srikar follows a lot of spiritual sentiments. Kittu has written wonderful lyrics for all the songs. The movie has five songs in total. I thoroughly enjoyed working on this film.”
Child artist Khushi said, “I’m very happy to be part of Summer Holidays. Thanks to producer Dheeraj garu for this opportunity.”
Child actor Arun said, “Summer holidays mean visiting grandmother’s house, playing games, eating mangoes, and enjoying carefree days. Some may think, ‘Why watch a children’s film?’ But when you watch such movies, your own childhood memories come rushing back. I believe everyone will love this film.”
Child actor Rohan said, “After the 90’s web series, I acted in projects like Pre-Wedding Show and Bhartha Mahashayulaku Vignapthi, mostly in comic roles. I worried whether I’d continue getting only such characters. At that time, Summer Holidays came to me. It was my dream to see my solo photo on a movie poster. Having Dil Raju garu as the chief guest today is another memorable moment. Thanks to Dheeraj garu for this opportunity. I love Sinjith’s music, and director Srikar has presented me in a completely new way. I worked very hard for this film, and I hope everyone supports it.”
Actress Harshini said, “I’m happy that so many talented directors attended our event as guests. Everyone says my role in this film is very surprising. Even some notable personalities who watched the movie said the same. Whether my character is positive or negative, audiences will have to watch the film and decide.”
Actor Rajeev Kanakala said, “I played a wonderful role in this movie with a Godavari district dialect. Writer Kondal Rao helped me perfect the accent. Srikar is a director with great clarity. Child artists Rohan, Arun, and Khushi have performed brilliantly and will gain tremendous recognition through this film. Harshini’s role will surprise everyone. Vasuki and Harshavardhan have also played excellent characters. Sinjith has composed beautiful music for the film.”
Actress Vasuki Anand said, “This film comes with a strong script. Even the teaser makes it clear that content is king. It beautifully captures little moments and emotions from life. Audiences will emotionally connect with the story and scenes. Director Srikar handled the film with great clarity. Thanks to Dheeraj garu for making me part of such a wonderful project. I’d also like to thank director Rahul Ravindran. I personally love women-centric and children’s films, and I hope we see more such movies.”
Director Srikar said, “I could make this film well only because of the support given by Dheeraj garu. Along with confidence in my script, his backing gave me the courage to move forward. Even if this film becomes a huge blockbuster, the credit belongs to Dheeraj garu. Audiences will see Rohan in a completely new light. Arun is a single-take artist, and Khushi will become a future star heroine. We thought of Vasuki garu from the very beginning for this role, and she performed brilliantly in every scene. Rajeev Kanakala, Harshini, and the entire cast strengthened the movie with their performances. Sinjith’s music, Sai Prakash’s cinematography, and Kittu’s lyrics will impress audiences. Thanks to my entire team.”
Producer Giribabu said, “Dheeraj and I are good friends. We distributed films like Devara and Daaku Maharaaj together. One day, he invited me to hear the story of Summer Holidays. I loved it instantly and decided to come on board as a producer. The film has turned out really well, and we believe audiences will enjoy it.”
Director Kaushik said, “Summer Holidays is a very good film. Perhaps no other producer would have attempted such a movie. Dheeraj made it purely out of passion. It beautifully reminds us of our childhood memories. Every actor in the film has given their best. I hope the film becomes a grand success.”
Director Nandakishore said, “While making Summer Holidays, Dheeraj garu spoke to me and said that after watching our film 35 – Chinna Katha Kaadu, his confidence increased further. This movie will feel refreshing in theatres and remind audiences of their childhood and their own children’s mischievous moments.”
Director Ravi Namburii said, “Director Srikar narrates stories beautifully. While listening to this story, I went back into my own memories. Some of my friends worked on this film. Summer Holidays will remain memorable forever.”
Director Sai Marthand said, “All the films produced by Dheeraj garu are good. Though this is a children’s film, he made it with rich production values. I can confidently say this movie will become a hit. I heard one of Sinjith’s songs, and it’s wonderful.”
Director Ram Abbaraju said, “Everyone in this team is familiar to me. Speaking on this stage feels like spending summer holidays with cousins. The teaser looked beautiful and gave a very fresh feeling. I wish the film becomes a blockbuster.”
Director Pavan Sadineni said, “When a teaser makes you feel like watching the movie in theatres, that itself means the film is a hit. Summer Holidays created that feeling for me. Dheeraj had told me about this project earlier, and I strongly believe the movie will succeed. It’s admirable that so much new talent is being introduced through this film.”
Director Rahul Ravindran said, “I have twin children. Whenever we want to show them children’s films, we only have Disney and Pixar movies available. There are hardly any Telugu children’s films today. During our childhood, at least one children’s film would release every year. As a father, I’m very happy that a Telugu children’s film is finally arriving after so long. Dheeraj is backing this movie not because of stars, but because he believed in the story. We all have the responsibility to support him. I hope the film becomes a huge success.”
Director Sai Rajesh said, “The film industry is very different now compared to two years ago. We no longer know which content will genuinely connect with audiences or which films will get openings. Recently, we released a song from Chennai Love Story, and we’re tense about audience response. We’re investing huge budgets into films, but as directors, we’re confused about what kinds of stories to write. If Baby had released now, it might not even have earned half its share. We’ve unintentionally killed certain genres. Only rom-coms, thrillers, and action films are being made repeatedly. Hats off to Dheeraj, who has the courage to passionately produce meaningful stories. We need to restore respect for cinema and the film industry among audiences again. Giri garu is a wonderful person, and I wish him great success through this film. All the best to the cast and crew.”
Producer Dheeraj Mogilineni said, “Thanks to Dil Raju garu for launching our teaser. Aravind garu was the reason I entered the industry. I worked with him on my last four films, and now I’m producing a solo project. His blessings will always be with me. I heard this story last December and started shooting in February. We wanted to release it in summer, but due to improvements and unforeseen reasons, the release got delayed. Even though the release is postponed, I’m proud that we’re bringing a superb film. Some people discouraged me, saying no one watches children’s films anymore. But I remember enjoying films like Little Soldiers as a child. I strongly believe that if at least one film in this genre releases every year, children and families will definitely come to theatres and enjoy it. My entire team worked very hard for this movie. Thankfully, we found three talented child performers perfectly suited for the story. I’d also like to thank their parents. Thanks to Jayasudha garu, who plays the grandmother’s role, and to Vasuki, Harshavardhan, Rajeev Kanakala, and Harshini for their key performances. If this film succeeds, more producers will come forward to make films in this genre. My friend Giri agreed to produce this film the moment he heard the story because of his trust in me. Recently, major producers met Deputy CM Pawan Kalyan garu regarding industry issues. Just like big producers, small producers also face many challenges. When the opportunity arises, we too will meet Pawan Kalyan garu and explain our concerns. We are also planning to meet Union Minister Amit Shah garu with Pawan Kalyan garu’s support to discuss measures against piracy.”
