Samyuktha told that they have been shooting part-by-part. The actor shared update about a schedule that included major portions of Kajol’s action sequences. She also revealed about another schedule featuring her that was recently wrapped. While sharing her experience, the Malayam actor said, “We had a blast! They got an action director from abroad and the way they planned everything was wonderful. I feel so grateful.”

Samyuktha also pointed out, “After I heard the story of Maharagni, the one major thing that our director (Charan Tej Uppalapati) and I sat down and discussed was how he wanted to present two women in action-packed avatars. The chat was all about why should boys have all the fun? Maharagni is a true-blue commercial film packed with songs and fight sequences. The action is being done by us. It’s very interesting to be a part of a film like this.”
