Hyderabad, July 11 — Marking the sacred occasion of Guru Purnima, acclaimed Telugu actress Anushka Shetty shared a heartfelt message of gratitude to her spiritual guide Bharat Thakur, expressing thanks for his continued grace and guidance throughout her life. The actress also acknowledged her parents, family, and the unseen hands that have helped shape her personal and professional journey.
Taking to Instagram, Anushka wrote:
“To my guru 🙏 Bharat Thakur 🙏 for his grace and guidance always, to my parents, my family, my dear one... to every person known/unknown, to moments/situations each day... all of which that has just helped me grow, helped me learn/unlearn... helped me be who I am and the journey continues... Thank you very much. Happy Guru Purnima.”
The post has resonated widely with fans and followers, many of whom admire Anushka for her humility and spiritual depth.
A Quiet Powerhouse: Anushka’s Spiritual Journey and Screen Presence
Known for maintaining a low-key public profile despite her massive stardom, Anushka Shetty has often credited yoga and inner reflection for keeping her grounded. Her association with Bharat Thakur, a renowned spiritual and yoga guru, has been longstanding and deeply personal.
While her on-screen roles often portray strength and resilience, this real-life moment of gratitude shows a softer, introspective side of the Baahubali actress — a side fans rarely see, but deeply admire.
‘Ghaati’: Anushka Shetty and Krish Reunite for a Gritty Action Drama
On the cinematic front, Anushka is preparing for the release of her highly anticipated film ‘Ghaati’, directed by Krish Jagarlamudi. The film reunites the actress with Krish after their critically acclaimed 2010 drama ‘Vedam’.
Originally scheduled to release on July 11, the film’s launch has been postponed, with the production team citing artistic and narrative integrity as the reason behind the delay.
In an emotional note shared online, the film's production house UV Creations stated:
“Cinema is a living river... sometimes it rushes forward, sometimes it pauses to gather depth. Ghaati is not just a film; it’s a mountain echo, a wild breeze, a story carved from stone and soil.”
The note further added that the delay is meant to ensure the final product is more intense, unforgettable, and emotionally resonant.
A Tale of Morality and Survival: What We Know About Ghaati
Ghaati stars Vikram Prabhu opposite Anushka in the lead role. Vikram portrays the character Desi Raju, and in a recent interview, he revealed that he lost eight kilograms to authentically inhabit the role.
The film's tagline, “Victim, Criminal, Legend,” hints at a morally complex storyline—one that traverses between crime, redemption, and internal conflict. Set against a gritty, rural backdrop, Ghaati delves deep into the human psyche, exploring the gray areas between right and wrong.
Production & Creative Team
Ghaati is being presented by UV Creations and produced by Rajeev Reddy and Sai Babu Jagarlamudi. This marks Anushka’s fourth collaboration with UV Creations, reinforcing her strong association with the banner.
The film features a top-notch creative team:
- Cinematography: Manojh Reddy Katasani
- Music: Nagavelli Vidya Sagar
- Art Direction: Thota Tharrani (National Award Winner)
- Editing: Chanakya Reddy Toorupu & Venkat N Swamy
- Dialogues: Sai Madhav Burra
With such a team, Ghaati promises a cinematic experience that is both visually arresting and narratively gripping.
Anushka’s Career: Poised for Evolution

With Ghaati, she appears to be stepping into yet another layered, emotionally intense performance, underlining her place as one of Indian cinema’s most dynamic and introspective actors.
As the film explores themes of typecasting, survival, and morality, its storyline seems to align poetically with Anushka’s own life reflections shared on Guru Purnima—a dual celebration of personal growth and professional depth.
