00:00Ma'am, good to see you. Congratulations on your movie.

00:02The movie is running great.

00:04It has crossed almost 150 crores up till now.

00:06How are you feeling after the success of the film?

00:10I am feeling very good that our film has created such a big mark in the fastest pace.

00:19And everybody is congratulating me that Urvashi,

00:24you have become the first outsider Bollywood actress of 2025

00:28to enter into the 100 crore club in such a short span of time.

00:32It's just been 3 days.

00:34Our film has proved to be the biggest blockbuster of the Sankranti.

00:38So I would like to thank everyone who watched the film and appreciated it so much.

00:44And not just like Dabiri Dibiri,

00:47but the character in my film is of a police officer, a cop.

00:51And the action stunts were done by me.

00:55There is no body double.

00:57There is a particular sequence in which I am fighting with 10-15 men.

01:04I have to fight with them alone.

01:06So in that, real guns have been used.

01:11And you will get to see a lot of kicks.

01:14So it is a very action-oriented role.

01:17Along with that, everybody is appreciating the Telugu dialogue delivery,

01:20an on-screen presence.

01:22And from the beginning, I had promised myself that I have to pay attention to versatility.

01:29Be it with the range of characters that I want to do and I am able to do.

01:34That I have to play different kinds of roles from the beginning.

01:37I don't have to do it the same way.

01:38And I am really very happy that everyone appreciates the acting skills and on-screen presence

01:46in 70mm.

01:50And there is a legendary superstar, Balakrishna Garu.

01:55He has so many fans.

01:57He is a God of Mass.

01:59Finally, I can become a Goddess of Mass.

02:02And ma'am, if we talk about the screen presence,

02:04you have shared the screen with one of the stalwarts in the Telugu cinema, Balakrishna sir.

02:09Along with that, Bobby Deol has been part of this movie.

02:12Salman is part of this movie.

02:13So how was the experience of working with him?

02:16You know, sharing the screen with such great actors.

02:19So how was your experience throughout the movie?

02:20The experience was amazing.

02:23Because this is Bobby Deol's Telugu acting debut.

02:25And this is my Telugu acting debut.

02:27And everybody, like you show in the media,

02:32the shockest, longest, biggest age gap between the co-stars.

02:36Yes, it is.

02:38I will not deny that it is not.

02:40It is the biggest age gap of Indian cinema.

02:44But along with that, when Sridevi ma'am, Sridevi Garu had worked with Balakrishna sir's father, N.T. Ramarao,

02:53who is the Telugu's biggest superstar, legendary superstar.

02:57A film was released in 1978-1979.

03:01So even his age gap was this much.

03:03That film was also a hit.

03:05And our film was also a blockbuster super hit.

03:08So I think people got acceptance.

03:11And when you talk about age gaps,

03:13everyone is saying that there is a huge age gap.

03:15So in that film also,

03:17Balakrishna sir's father, N.T. Ramarao, and Sridevi ma'am had the same age gap.

03:24So everybody is appreciating it.

03:27And it is my good fortune that

03:29within 11 months,

03:31I could work with Chiranjeevi Garu,

03:33Pawan Kalyan Garu, and Balakrishna.

03:36I have worked with all of them.

03:38So I am really very happy that

03:40they have such a diverse mass fan following.

03:42I have a very loyal global fan base.

03:46Not just in India,

03:48but be it in France, Paris, Middle East, America.

03:52But when a movie becomes a super duper blockbuster,

03:57it solidifies the mass appeal of people.

04:02And I am very happy to cater to the masses.

04:04There are so many people who are fans,

04:06and they have also seen the film.

04:08So it kind of helps in increasing the fan following.

04:11Ma'am, if we talk about Bollywood cinema,

04:14and South Indian cinema,

04:16often things are compared,

04:20be it by actors or film producers.

04:23So is this comparison right?

04:25And if I ask you one difference,

04:27what do you think is the major difference

04:30between working in Bollywood and South Indian industry?

04:35Yes, our work is the same.

04:39It depends.

04:41From the beginning,

04:43I had promised myself that

04:45I only want to work with visionary filmmakers.

04:49The director of this film, K S Ravindra Bobby ji,

04:52has also had a very good track record of hit films.

04:55This is the biggest blockbuster hit of his career.

04:58Balakrishna Garu,

05:00all three of his films have been bumper blockbusters.

05:04But Daco Maharaj has got the biggest opening.

05:07So this has become the highest crossing film of our career.

05:14Think about it,

05:16it was not released in Hindi and Tamil.

05:18It was released in US and Telugu.

05:20It has got such a big bumper opening.

05:22If it had been released here,

05:24it would have crossed 500 crores.

05:26And ma'am,

05:29this is the time when many movies have clashed.

05:33Whether it is Fateh, Game Changer,

05:35Emergency or Azad.

05:37Game Changer is a South Indian film that has been released.

05:41And during that time,

05:43your film has crossed 150 crores.

05:46Kiara Advani is also a part of Game Changer.

05:49You have also crossed her in terms of film collection.

05:53How did you feel about her reaction?

05:56I am reading a lot of tweets related to this.

06:04Shankar sir is a very celebrated director.

06:06I have worked with him in Indian 2.

06:11I met him too.

06:13He is definitely on my wish list.

06:15But I think the whole game has changed.

06:18Because obviously that film was also very hyped.

06:21I am reading a lot of tweets.

06:23But I think if Kiara Advani's Game Changer has been a disaster,

06:27and my film Daku Maharaj has become a blockbuster,

06:31then it is not my mistake.

06:33I feel why these tweets are happening.

06:36But at the same time,

06:38I am extremely thankful to everyone

06:40for watching this film Daku Maharaj and appreciating it.

06:43And ma'am, before leaving,

06:45any special message you would like to give your fans

06:48related to Daku Maharaj?

06:50What would be your message to those who haven't watched this film yet?

06:54My message would be,

06:56I love you all.

06:58The way I am getting so much love from South India and US,

07:01and all over India for my performance,

07:04I am extremely thankful for that.

07:07And people,

07:09like we are talking about Dabdi Dibdi,

07:12it is very important to understand that

07:15this film is a very high budget song.

07:18It is the mass song of our film.

07:21I will term it as a mass song, not an item,

07:24because the girl is not dancing alone.

07:27There is a hero also dancing with the boy,

07:29and he is also dancing with so much power and energy.

07:32So, the representation of the king and queen is so much in this.

07:36If you see their look,

07:38they are sitting in their throne,

07:40I am also sitting in my throne,

07:42in the song,

07:43different looks are shown much larger than life.

07:46I have been shown as a king,

07:48and I have been shown as a queen and princess.

07:51The styling and design of the film,

07:53is done by Gavin C. McGuill,

07:55which is done very well.

07:57So, I would say that

07:59the presentation is much larger than life.

08:01It is a very high budget song,

08:03maybe of around 15 crores,

08:05that song is Dabdi Dibdi.

08:08So, everybody is talking about the song,

08:11but I also know that

08:13there are so many marks on my body,

08:15after shooting that song,

08:17which are still there.

08:19I have Dabdi Dibdi marks on my body while dancing,

08:21because the costumes were very heavy.

08:23And you must have seen the rehearsals of BTSP choreography,

08:26which I was doing.

08:28So, it's not very easy dancing,

08:30but a lot of tribal moments have been used.

08:33It is according to the film's genre.

08:35We have used a lot of Afro dance moves in it.

08:38Jungle, tribal inspired dancing,

08:40because our film's genre is like that.

08:42So, it won't be right to judge so soon.

08:44People should go and watch Raku Maharaj,

08:46then they will understand what the song is.

08:49And until they see the whole song,

08:51then they will realize how much effort and hard work

08:53has gone behind this song.

08:56And finally, ma'am,

08:57a short message to your fans from yourself.

09:00A short message to my fans that I love you all.

09:03And before leaving,

09:05I would like to thank our director,

09:07Mr. Bobby Kohli,

09:09I have worked very hard for the last two years

09:11for this film, for the screenwriting,

09:13for the screenplay.

09:15So, hats off to him.

09:17And also our producers,

09:19Sitara Entertainments,

09:21Naga Vamshi Garu,

09:22for backing up such an amazing project

09:24and always being there to support us.
