Movie's plot
Maharshi tells a compelling story of ambition, friendship, and social responsibility. It follows the life of Rishi played by Mahesh Babu, a successful businessman who returns to his roots and becomes an advocate for rural empowerment and farmers' welfare. The story beautifully blends corporate drama with themes of social change.
The film was a massive hit at the box office, grossing over Rs 176 crore worldwide and ranking as the third highest-grossing Telugu film of 2019. Its success was matched by critical appreciation, especially for the performances and technical finesse.
The screenplay was co-written by Vamshi Paidipally along with Hari and Solomon, with lyrics by Shreemani. The music, composed by Devi Sri Prasad, and the action sequences choreographed by Ram-Lakshman, brought intensity to key moments. K. U. Mohanan was the man behind the camera. Filming took place across multiple locations including Hyderabad, Goa, Dehradun, New York, and Pollachi.
