Prabhas will become Number One Hero with Pournami - Krishnam Raju
Krishnam Raju said, “MS Raju is one of the most efficient producers in Telugu film industry. Prabhas proved himself as a star with Varsham and Chatrapati. I am confident that Prabhas will become number one after Pournami film. Pournami is going to run for 365 days. I heard the songs of Pournami yesterday night and opined that the quality of songs is invaluable. I bought the audio cassette by paying one lac, which is less amount compared to the real worth.”
D Rama Naidu said, “MS Raju involves himself in every aspect of filmmaking. Prabhas has done great work in Chatrapati film. I hope that Pournami will become a huge hit.”
Snake and Flute: symbols of Prabhas characterization - Paruchuri Gopala Krishna
Paruchuri Gopala Krishna said, “we started the work for this film in February 2005. Prabhas wears snake an uses flute at times. Snake and Flute are symbolic gestures of Lord Shiva and Lord Krishna. You can see the influences of both these God’s in the characterization of Prabhas. MS Raju has made it a habit to deliver successful films. The movie lovers who admire K Viswanth will also like this film a lot. MS Raju will become India’s number one producer with Pournami.”
Music director Devi Sri Prasad said that he has been climbing the ladder of success step by step. But for Pournami, I climbed three steps at a time.

Pournami is a period film - MS Raju
Producer MS Raju said, “I am very confident that Pournami would become one of the biggest hits of Telugu film industry. Pournami is basically a period film and it needs lots of time and patience to make it. Pournami film offered me a challenging task and I could able to complete with great help from my technicians and actors. I have done many films in the past, which includes formula films. But, Pournami is so different that it will set a trend for filmmakers in the future. I would like to thank Venkatesh for releasing the audio and Krishna Raju bought it for 1 lac. I will use that one lac in performing good deeds. The audiocassettes were sold out with in hours of release today morning. All the songs in this film are directly related to the storyline. We are aiming to release Pournami film in the 3rd week of April.”
