Bheeshma released in theatres earlier this year in February. The film is directed by Venky Kudumula and produced by Naga Vamsi. Devi Sri Prasad has composed the music for the film with Sai Sriram doing the cinematography and Navin Nooling the editing.

The film released in January 2020 and performed extremely well at the box office.
Sarileru Neekevvaru released at the same time as Allu Arjun and Trivikram’s Ala Vaikuntapuramlo. Both films met with box office success, eventually becoming two of the biggest grossers internationally as well in India.
