Pawan Kalyan’s first pan-Indian film Hari Hara Veera Mallu: Part 1 – Sword vs Spirit released last Thursday, directed by Jyothi Krisna after the original director Krish Jagarlamudi stepped away from the project.
Though expectations were high, the film has drawn criticism for its poor VFX. Amid the underwhelming reception, several deleted scenes reportedly directed by Krish have started circulating online, sparking fresh curiosity among fans. These glimpses into Krish’s version have led many to wonder: Will these scenes ever be released officially?
At the moment, there’s no confirmation from Mega Surya Production, the studio behind the film. With no indication that the scenes will be included in the OTT version, a YouTube release remains the only plausible route, if the makers choose to acknowledge and share them.
For now, all eyes are on the production house. Whether they’ll address the buzz or leave Krish’s version in the shadows remains to be seen.
The poor response pushed the makers to trim out scenes that were drawing backlash or unwanted attention. A renewed cut of the film is now playing in theatres across the country.
