Return of Lakshmi Manchu with ‘Adiparvam’
Exciting New Film Set to Release
Lakshmi Manchu is poised to make her much-anticipated return to cinema after a two-year hiatus with her latest project, Adiparvam. Directed by Sanjeev Megoti, the film’s poster was revealed on October 8, coinciding with Lakshmi’s 47th birthday. The poster features the actress adorned in various sarees, displaying a range of intense emotions.
The imagery in the poster holds significance, showcasing a temple in the background and Lakshmi partially obscured by vibrant red and yellow hues. These elements suggest that her character may possess notable depth, though it’s yet to be disclosed whether she will take on a role as a hero or villain. In his social media announcement of the poster, Sanjeev extended his birthday wishes, stating, “Many more happy returns of the day and happy birthday to you, and God bless you, Manchu Lakshmi Prasanna Garu.”
