Waltair Veerayya
Waltair Veerayya is a 2023 Indian Telugu-language action comedy film directed by Bobby Kolli and produced by Mythri Movie Makers. The film stars Chiranjeevi as the title character alongside Ravi Teja, Shruti Haasan, Catherine Tresa, Prakash Raj, Bobby Simha, Rajendra Prasad, and Vennela Kishore. Notorious smuggler Waltair Veerayya is recruited by RA&W to extradite a dangerous drug lord from Malaysia to India. However, the mission reveals a deeper personal vendetta involving Veerayya’s past and his relationship with his late half-brother Vikram Sagar IPS (Teja), an upright police officer.
The film was announced in August 2021. Principal photography commenced in December 2021 with filming taking place in Hyderabad, Visakhapatnam and Malaysia. The soundtrack was composed by Devi Sri Prasad with cinematography by Arthur A. Wilson and editing by Niranjan Devaramane.
Waltair Veerayya was released on 13 January 2023, coinciding with Sankranti weekend, and received mixed to positive reviews from critics. The film became commercially successful at the box office, thus becoming the third highest-grossing Telugu film of 2023.
Waltair Veerayya is approached by suspended CI Seethapathi. Seethapathi offers to clear Veerayya’s debts if he captures Solomon Caesar—a violent drug baron who has escaped RAW custody—in Malaysia and returns him to India. Veerayya accepts and, accompanied by his friends and Seethapathi’s brother‑in‑law, checks into Solomon’s Kuala Lumpur hotel to hatch an abduction plan.
While scouting Solomon’s hotel, Veerayya inadvertently meets Nithya and Vaishnavi on holiday, alarming Nithya into pulling her daughter away. A rogue tailing attempt by Seethapathi’s relative ends in his capture by Solomon’s men; Veerayya rescues him and tricks Solomon into believing he is a drug buyer. At Solomon’s private party, RAW agents led by Athidhi attempt a raid, but Veerayya—unaware they are government operatives—foils them and earns Solomon’s gratitude. Promising a safe return to India, Veerayya then springs his plan: Solomon, upon discovering the ruse, tortures Athidhi on video while Michael watches. But Veerayya kills the goons and revels that he came for Michal and kills Soloman. Veerayya revels his past to Ci Seethapathi
Past:Veerayya runs an ice factory and traffics contraband under the alias “Kaala,” while Vikram rises to ACP, marries Dr. Nithya, and fathers a daughter, Vaishnavi. Drug lord Michael Caesar secretly uses Veerayya’s ice business to smuggle cocaine; when tainted ice kills 25 schoolchildren, Michael frames Veerayya and escapes to Malaysia. Vikram stages a police “encounter” to lure Michael back, but Michael’s men fatally stab Vikram—and his name is dishonorably besmirched posthumously. Nithya and Vaishnavi grieve, blaming Veerayya for both tragedies.
Present: Back in India, Veerayya engineers a feud between Michael and partner Velappan Karuppan, crippling their operations and compelling Michael’s cooperation. Overcoming his vertigo with Athidhi’s help, he safely escorts Michael to head cut in court. Michael’s testimony exonerates Veerayya, restores ACP Vikram’s honor, and acquits Veerayya of past charges. To avenge the children slain by cocaine‑laced ice—fulfilling Vikram’s dying wish—Veerayya decapitates Michael in open court. Sentenced to prison, he attends Vikram’s state honors ceremony in custody, where Nithya and Vaishnavi finally forgive him, reuniting the fractured family.
In August 2021, it was announced that Chiranjeevi and K. S. Ravindra (also known as Bobby) would team up for a film tentatively titled Mega154 (intended to be Chiranjeevi's 154th film) under the production of Mythri Movie Makers. The film was formally launched in November 2021. In April 2022, Chiranjeevi unintentionally revealed the film is titled Waltair Veerayya. The title was officially confirmed in October 2022. Ravindra wrote the story and dialogues, which were scripted by Kona Venkat and K. Chakravarthy Reddy. Arthur A. Wilson was signed on as the cinematographer, marking his third collaboration with Bobby, after Power and Sardaar Gabbar Singh. Niranjan Devaramane was the film's editor.
