Director Bala Rajasekharuni says, " Title 'Nayana Rara Intiki' depicts many meanings. But, this is a highly energetic romantic comedy movie. I want to see Avasarala Srinivas like a Jim Carey, Charlie Chaplin, Young Rajendraprasad. This film will be enjoyed by all, from kids to adults. This film comes from my real life experiences. I wrote this story imagining Avasarala Srinivas in my mind. The heroine must be a Telugu girl who can speak Telugu fluently. So, we chose Bikshu gari daughter Mahati as a heroine. Seetharama Sastry garu penning lyrics for this film while his son Yogeswara Sarma is being introduced as a music director with this film. Initially, we were in a bit of confusion whether to do this film or another subject which is a remake of a Hollywood film. Then BA Raju garu who has a vast experience of working for more than 1500 films, suggested proceeding with 'Nayana Rara Intiki'. Thanks to him. Akkineni Amala garu is the main reason why I came to India. She asked me to work as a Dean for Annapurna School. I felt very lucky about her offer. I worked as a dean and formed a team. I feel lucky that Amala garu gave the first clap for my first film. My heartful thanks to Amala garu., Nagarjuna garu & Akkineni family."
Sirivennela Seetharamasastry says, " Bala went to America and faced
many hardships before he became successful. He is a good friend for Steven Speilberg. He always helps people who went to America for shooting a film. I always want him to become a director. I am very happy that he is becoming a director with this film. I wish him great success."
Mega Brother Nagababu says, " Like his name Balarajasekharuni is a very good person. He holds many degrees to his name. He is working as a dean to Annapurna Film School. He gave me a very good character in this film. I am doing this film just for the sake of Bala. This film has a very good story. It deals with the pain of parents who misses their kids."
Music Director Yogeswara Sarama says, " I used to know Bala garu since I am a kid. I am very happy that my first film as a music director is directed by Bala garu. This film is a complete fun ride."
Heroine Mahati says, " Thanks for selecting me as a heroine for this film. It's a dream come true for me acting as a heroine in a Telugu film."
Hero Avasarala Srinivas says, " I know Bala garu even before the days of 'Ashta Chemma'. I worked as an assistant director for his second film' Blind Ambition'. I feel lucky to be a lead character in Bala gari first Telugu film. I promised Producer Pradeep that I will put all my efforts to make him a long-standing producer in this industry. All the best Pradeep."
